How can I get dates in this format?

[V Munich]

Hello,

I already played a lot with the {-TimeNow.-} variable, but I can't find a way to get dates in this format:

20140322

2014-03-22

Note that I need the 0 above if the month number is lower than 10.

I can achieve this easily with php:

<?php
echo date("Ymd");
<br>
echo date("Y-m-d");
?>

But how about Zenno? Is there a way to run PHP inside it? (Using ProjectMaker).

I tried this in javascript to get 2014-03-22, but it returns nothing:

var today = new Date();
var dd = today.getDate();
var mm = today.getMonth()+1; //January is 0!
var yyyy = today.getFullYear();

if(dd<10) {
    dd='0'+dd
}

if(mm<10) {
    mm='0'+mm
}

today = yyyy+'-'+mm+'-'+dd;
document.write(today);

Though, it works on JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Aaju5/

DateTime date1 = DateTime.Today;
var date = date1.ToString("d");
return date.Replace(".","");

C#

DateTime date1 = DateTime.Today;
var date = date1.ToString("d");
return date.Replace(".","");

C#

Thanks rostonix!

I did this modification to get the dates on the format I need:

DateTime date1 = DateTime.Today;
var date = date1.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");
return date.Replace(".","");

// Returns 2014-03-22

DateTime date1 = DateTime.Today;
var date = date1.ToString("yyyyMMdd");
return date.Replace(".","");

// Returns 20140322
