Hi folks,
I'm developing my own theme based upon pushbutton. I'd need to display the date, but I haven't found any way to do it.
The smart tag displayed in drupal documents for xtemplate are the only ones?
Thanks in advance,
Riccardo

On my site, we did it by a quick hack to by hacking xtemplate.engine

On line 126 of xtemplate.engine (same line number in both the 4.5.1 and 4.5.0 installations), is a line:

"styles" => theme_get_styles(),

after that line, we added:

"this_date" => date("j F Y"),

(note the comma at the end of the code)

That produces today's date as: 17 January 2005

Something like this really ought to be in the default installation
