Date.DiffDays

Using Date.DiffDays for an Intranet is really useful - however to return "it's 12.2321321 days before the next pay day" looks rubbish - can you advise in your second example (given above) how to only return a whole number please?

Have a look at the number functions (http://wiki.developer.mindtouch.com/MindTouch_Deki/DekiScript/Reference/DekiScript_Functions_and_Variables#Number_Functions), and you'll see num.floor(), which will do what you want. Just wrap it around the above code to return an int:

"{{ num.floor(date.diffdays(paydaydate, date.now)) }} days before the next pay day" edited 19:37, 28 Jul 2008

The reason for this behavior is that it's no uncommon to want to show something like "X days, Y hours, Z minutes" until an event.
