+            <p>We are happy to announce the release of <code>cordova-windows 6.0.0</code>. </p>
+
+<p>This is a major release that changes functionality you might rely on, so please make sure to read the following list of changes:</p>
+
+<h2>Changes</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li><strong>Windows 10 / UWP</strong> builds are now default, meaning <code>cordova build windows</code> will now build a Windows 10 UWP app by default. Windows (Phone) 8.1 is still supported, of course, just use <code>cordova build windows -- --appx=8.1-win</code>, <code>cordova build windows -- --appx=8.1-phone</code> or an equivalent configuration option.</li>
+<li>You can now build apps with a current installation of <strong>Visual Studio 2017</strong> (<code>15.5.x</code> at the time of writing) without any additional configuration or hacks (like the environment variable <code>VSINSTALLDIR</code> that was required for 5.0.0).
+
+<ul>
+<li>Note: <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/productinfo/vs2017-compatibility-vs#windows-store-and-windows-phone-apps">Visual Studio 2017 doesn&#39;t support Windows 8.1 apps anymore</a>, so you can only build these apps with Visual Studio 2015 installed.</li>
+</ul></li>
+<li>New <strong>ENV variable <code>MSBUILDDIR</code></strong> allows to directly configure the MSBuild Tools to be used to build the app. While <code>VSINSTALLDIR</code> always has been a hack that accidentally also worked to switch between different MSBuildTools versions, we now we this functionality explicit:  Just set the ENV var to a your desired MSBuild folder (e.g. <code>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\15.0\Bin</code> or <code>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin\</code>) and it will be used to build your project. 
+
+<ul>
+<li>If you have Visual Studio 2017 and Visual Studio 2015 installed at the same time, the normal logic would always choose Visual Studio 2017&#39;s MSBuild 15 - and fail on a Windows (Phone) 8.1 project. If you set the environment variable MSBuild 14, it can successfully build your 8.1 apps.</li>
+<li>If the supplied path is invalid or doesn&#39;t contain a working MSBuild, the normal MSBuild selection logic will be triggered</li>
+</ul></li>
+<li>Fixes several bugs</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Installation</h2>
+
+<p>As usual, this new version will be added as the default <code>cordova-windows</code> version for <code>cordova platform add windows</code> only with the next release of Cordova CLI. Until then, please use these commands to remove and re-add the <code>windows</code> platform:</p>
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-" data-lang="">cordova platform rm windows
+cordova platform add windows@6.0.0
+</code></pre></div>
+<h3>Known limitations</h3>
+
+<p>As it&#39;s often the case, the <code>6.0.0</code> release of cordova-windows is not perfect and has some known limitations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>If you only have Visual Studio 2017 installed on your machine, you can not build Windows (Phone) 8.1 apps.</li>
+<li>As with earlier versions, Windows 10 Mobile emulators are not supported by the CLI but require Visual Studio to be used to build the app</li>
+<li>Some <a href="https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/issues/266"><code>build</code></a> and <a href="https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/issues/267">requirements error messages</a> are not optimal</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Feedback</h2>
+
+<p>If you encounter problems with this new version, you can use the <a href="https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/issues">GitHub issues of the <code>cordova-windows</code> repository</a> to do so now. (<code>cordova-windows</code> is the first Apache Cordova repository on GitHub that uses issues on GitHub instead of <a href="http://issues.cordova.io/">JIRA issues</a>!)</p>
+
+<h2>The future of <code>cordova-windows</code></h2>
+
+<p>Working on this update reminded us how much code there is to support other platform variants besides Windows 10 Desktop / UWP, specifically Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 but also Windows 10 Mobile.</p>
+
+<p>As Microsoft recently ended mainstream support for all <strong>Windows 8.1</strong> variants, total market share recedes below 6% and Visual Studio 2017 doesn&#39;t support 8.1 development anymore, we don&#39;t expect any future changes that would require updates to <code>cordova-windows</code>&#39; 8.1 support. Same for <strong>Windows 10 Mobile</strong>, which is not under active development by Microsoft anymore and will not receive any other updates than security fixes.</p>
+
+<p>Because of that, we decided to <strong>deprecate all &quot;mobile&quot; and &quot;phone&quot; build targets of <code>cordova-windows</code></strong>. In the near future, we will release a <code>7.0.0</code> version that will remove support for those platform variants and focus on Windows 10 UWP - which will greatly reduce complexity and simplify future maintenance.<br>
+<code>cordova-windows 6.0.0</code> with support for these platforms, of course, will stay available and receive bugfixes if necessary (Similar to how <code>cordova-windows@4</code> was the last version to support Windows 8.0).</p>
+
+<p>Please tell us in the comments to this blog post if you have any objections or comments to these plans.</p>

+                    <p><p>We are happy to announce the release of <code>cordova-windows 6.0.0</code>. </p>
+
+<p>This is a major release that changes functionality you might rely on, so please make sure to read the following list of changes:</p>
+
+<h2>Changes</h2>
+
+<ul>
+<li><strong>Windows 10 / UWP</strong> builds are now default, meaning <code>cordova build windows</code> will now build a Windows 10 UWP app by default. Windows (Phone) 8.1 is still supported, of course, just use <code>cordova build windows -- --appx=8.1-win</code>, <code>cordova build windows -- --appx=8.1-phone</code> or an equivalent configuration option.</li>
+<li>You can now build apps with a current installation of <strong>Visual Studio 2017</strong> (<code>15.5.x</code> at the time of writing) without any additional configuration or hacks (like the environment variable <code>VSINSTALLDIR</code> that was required for 5.0.0).
+
+<ul>
+<li>Note: <a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/productinfo/vs2017-compatibility-vs#windows-store-and-windows-phone-apps">Visual Studio 2017 doesn&#39;t support Windows 8.1 apps anymore</a>, so you can only build these apps with Visual Studio 2015 installed.</li>
+</ul></li>
+<li>New <strong>ENV variable <code>MSBUILDDIR</code></strong> allows to directly configure the MSBuild Tools to be used to build the app. While <code>VSINSTALLDIR</code> always has been a hack that accidentally also worked to switch between different MSBuildTools versions, we now we this functionality explicit:  Just set the ENV var to a your desired MSBuild folder (e.g. <code>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\MSBuild\15.0\Bin</code> or <code>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin\</code>) and it will be used to build your project. 
+
+<ul>
+<li>If you have Visual Studio 2017 and Visual Studio 2015 installed at the same time, the normal logic would always choose Visual Studio 2017&#39;s MSBuild 15 - and fail on a Windows (Phone) 8.1 project. If you set the environment variable MSBuild 14, it can successfully build your 8.1 apps.</li>
+<li>If the supplied path is invalid or doesn&#39;t contain a working MSBuild, the normal MSBuild selection logic will be triggered</li>
+</ul></li>
+<li>Fixes several bugs</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Installation</h2>
+
+<p>As usual, this new version will be added as the default <code>cordova-windows</code> version for <code>cordova platform add windows</code> only with the next release of Cordova CLI. Until then, please use these commands to remove and re-add the <code>windows</code> platform:</p>
+<div class="highlight"><pre><code class="language-" data-lang="">cordova platform rm windows
+cordova platform add windows@6.0.0
+</code></pre></div>
+<h3>Known limitations</h3>
+
+<p>As it&#39;s often the case, the <code>6.0.0</code> release of cordova-windows is not perfect and has some known limitations:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>If you only have Visual Studio 2017 installed on your machine, you can not build Windows (Phone) 8.1 apps.</li>
+<li>As with earlier versions, Windows 10 Mobile emulators are not supported by the CLI but require Visual Studio to be used to build the app</li>
+<li>Some <a href="https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/issues/266"><code>build</code></a> and <a href="https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/issues/267">requirements error messages</a> are not optimal</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Feedback</h2>
+
+<p>If you encounter problems with this new version, you can use the <a href="https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/issues">GitHub issues of the <code>cordova-windows</code> repository</a> to do so now. (<code>cordova-windows</code> is the first Apache Cordova repository on GitHub that uses issues on GitHub instead of <a href="http://issues.cordova.io/">JIRA issues</a>!)</p>
+
+<h2>The future of <code>cordova-windows</code></h2>
+
+<p>Working on this update reminded us how much code there is to support other platform variants besides Windows 10 Desktop / UWP, specifically Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 but also Windows 10 Mobile.</p>
+
+<p>As Microsoft recently ended mainstream support for all <strong>Windows 8.1</strong> variants, total market share recedes below 6% and Visual Studio 2017 doesn&#39;t support 8.1 development anymore, we don&#39;t expect any future changes that would require updates to <code>cordova-windows</code>&#39; 8.1 support. Same for <strong>Windows 10 Mobile</strong>, which is not under active development by Microsoft anymore and will not receive any other updates than security fixes.</p>
+
+<p>Because of that, we decided to <strong>deprecate all &quot;mobile&quot; and &quot;phone&quot; build targets of <code>cordova-windows</code></strong>. In the near future, we will release a <code>7.0.0</code> version that will remove support for those platform variants and focus on Windows 10 UWP - which will greatly reduce complexity and simplify future maintenance.<br>
+<code>cordova-windows 6.0.0</code> with support for these platforms, of course, will stay available and receive bugfixes if necessary (Similar to how <code>cordova-windows@4</code> was the last version to support Windows 8.0).</p>
+
+<p>Please tell us in the comments to this blog post if you have any objections or comments to these plans.</p>

+&lt;p&gt;Because of that, we decided to &lt;strong&gt;deprecate all &amp;quot;mobile&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;phone&amp;quot; build targets of &lt;code&gt;cordova-windows&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. In the near future, we will release a &lt;code&gt;7.0.0&lt;/code&gt; version that will remove support for those platform variants and focus on Windows 10 UWP - which will greatly reduce complexity and simplify future maintenance.&lt;br&gt;
+&lt;code&gt;cordova-windows 6.0.0&lt;/code&gt; with support for these platforms, of course, will stay available and receive bugfixes if necessary (Similar to how &lt;code&gt;cordova-windows@4&lt;/code&gt; was the last version to support Windows 8.0).&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Please tell us in the comments to this blog post if you have any objections or comments to these plans.&lt;/p&gt;

         <description>&lt;p&gt;We are happy to announce that &lt;code&gt;Cordova Android 7.1.0&lt;/code&gt; has been released! This release fixes various bugs releated to the previous &lt;code&gt;cordova-android@7.0.0&lt;/code&gt; release.&lt;/p&gt;

-        <title>Migrating from the Globalization Plugin</title>
-        <description>&lt;h2&gt;Migrating from the Cordova Globalization Plugin&lt;/h2&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The Cordova Globalization Plugin was created to obtain information and perform operations based on a user’s locale, language and timezone when most mobile platforms could not make a distinction between these settings. With the new API arrivals in the browser, we can now use the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-402/1.0/&quot;&gt;ECMA Internationalization API&lt;/a&gt; for achieving this goal on iOS, Android, Windows devices and desktop browsers. Hence, this cordova plugin is not needed any more and will be sunset soon.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;h3&gt;Migrating from the plugin to the Internationalization API&lt;/h3&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The cordova globalization plugin defines a global navigator.globalization object which provides various methods to access a user’s locale, language and timezone. To get the preferred language from the browser, the navigator.globalization.getPreferredLanguage method was used as shown below:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;div class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot; data-lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nb&quot;&gt;navigator&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;globalization&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;getPreferredLanguage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;kd&quot;&gt;function&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;language&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;          
-    &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;console&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;log&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;language: &#39;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;+&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;language&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;value&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;+&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;\n&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;},&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;kd&quot;&gt;function&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;()&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt; 
-    &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;console&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;log&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;Error getting language\n&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt; 
-&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;});&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;The current locale could be found out using:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;div class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot; data-lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nb&quot;&gt;navigator&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;globalization&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;getLocaleName&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;kd&quot;&gt;function&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;locale&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;          
-    &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;console&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;log&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;locale: &#39;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;+&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;locale&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;value&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;+&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;\n&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;},&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;kd&quot;&gt;function&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;()&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
-    &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;console&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;log&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;Error getting locale\n&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt; 
-&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;});&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-402/1.0/&quot;&gt;ECMA Internationalization API&lt;/a&gt; provides the &lt;code&gt;Intl&lt;/code&gt; object which provides language sensitive string comparison, number formatting, and date and time formatting. 
-First we should check if the API is supported by the browser:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;div class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot; data-lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;k&quot;&gt;if&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nb&quot;&gt;window&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;Intl&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;&amp;amp;&amp;amp;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;k&quot;&gt;typeof&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;nb&quot;&gt;window&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;Intl&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;===&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;object&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;
-    &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;console&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;log&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;API available&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;The preferred language tag can be found out from the browser by using the &lt;code&gt;navigator&lt;/code&gt; object:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;div class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot; data-lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;console&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;log&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nb&quot;&gt;navigator&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;language&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;The locale name can be found out using the &lt;code&gt;Intl.getCanonicalLocales(locales)&lt;/code&gt; method. &lt;code&gt;locales&lt;/code&gt; is a string value or an array of string values that has the language tag(s). The locale name can then be obtained as shown below:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;div class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot; data-lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;Intl&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;getCanonicalLocales&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;EN-US&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;c1&quot;&gt;// [&quot;en-US&quot;]&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;Intl&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;getCanonicalLocales&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;([&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;EN-US&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;Fr&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;]);&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;c1&quot;&gt;// [&quot;en-US&quot;, &quot;fr&quot;]&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
-&lt;p&gt;Another instance of migrating from the cordova globalization plugin can be seen in this example: the navigator.globalization.dateToString method. This method is used in the cordova plugin as shown below:&lt;/p&gt;
-&lt;div class=&quot;highlight&quot;&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;language-js&quot; data-lang=&quot;js&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nb&quot;&gt;navigator&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;globalization&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;dateToString&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;
-    &lt;span class=&quot;k&quot;&gt;new&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;nb&quot;&gt;Date&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(),&lt;/span&gt;
-    &lt;span class=&quot;kd&quot;&gt;function&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;date&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt; 
-        &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;alert&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;date: &#39;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;+&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;date&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;value&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;o&quot;&gt;+&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;\n&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt; 
-    &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;},&lt;/span&gt;
-    &lt;span class=&quot;kd&quot;&gt;function&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;()&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt; 
-        &lt;span class=&quot;nx&quot;&gt;alert&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;Error getting dateString\n&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt; 
-    &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;},&lt;/span&gt;
-    &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;na&quot;&gt;formatLength&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;short&#39;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;na&quot;&gt;selector&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;s1&quot;&gt;&#39;date&#39;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;span class=&quot;p&quot;&gt;);&lt;/span&gt;
-&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
