Programming ColdFusion MX, 2nd Edition

LSParseDateTime

Synopsis

                  LSParseDateTime(datestring)

Returns a locale-specific ColdFusion date/time object from datestring. LSParseDateTime( ) is similar to the ParseDateTime( ) function except it doesn’t handle POP dates. If the supplied datestring contains a time zone, and it is different than the time zone of the ColdFusion server, the datestring is converted to the time zone of the ColdFusion server. Example:

<cfloop index="locale" list="#Server.Coldfusion.SupportedLocales#">
  <cfset SetLocale(locale)>
  <cfoutput>
    <p><b>#locale#</b><br>
    #LSParseDateTime("#LSDateFormat(Now( ))# #LSTimeFormat(Now( ))#")#<br> 
  </cfoutput>
</cfloop>
