date input module

BlankI am a little confused as to where and how you can use the date input
module. I would like to use it to pass the current date as a parameter to an
XSL. Can it be used that way and if yes how?

Thanks,

Perry Molendijk

  1) configure it in cocoon.xconf to return a string with a suitable format
  2) in sitemap add
     <map:parameter name="currdate" value="{mydate:foo}"/>
     to your transformation, have your xslt expect this parameter and
     use it.
