You could see if the JSTL fmt tag will format the long into the correct
date. I know it works great for formating Dates into nice String
representations. Not sure if it works for longs though. If it doesn't,
why not just store an extra field in your bean as a java.util.Date
(getLastModifiedAsDate( returns the getLastModifiedTime from long to
Date ).
Then just format that how you want.

Posted by Kris Schneider <kr...@dotech.com>.
With JSTL:
<jsp:useBean id="date" class="java.util.Date"/>
<%-- in loop --%>
<c:set target="${date}" property="time" value="${longValue}"/>
<fmt:formatDate value="${date}" .../>
