XSLT 2.0 date formatting

example:

Basic rules:

F = day of week
D = day of month
M = month
Y = year
Nn = sentence case
1 = digit placeholder
o = order
*-x = size (output depends on value, e.g. [MNn,*-3] takes first three of month, [Y,*-2] takes last two of year

<xsl:value-of select="format-date(xs:date('2008-11-09'), '[FNn], [D1o] [MNn], [Y]')"/>
// Sunday, 9th November, 2008
 
<xsl:value-of select="format-date(xs:date('2008-11-09'), '[FNn,*-3], [D11o] [M], [Y11]')"/>
// Sun, 09th 11, 08
 
<xsl:value-of select="format-date(xs:date('2008-11-09'), '[FNn,*-2], [D1] [MN,*-3], [Y1111]')"/>
// Su, 9 NOV, 2008
 
<xsl:value-of select="format-date(xs:date('2008-11-09'), '[FN], [D11] [Mn,*-3], [Y,*-2]')"/>
// SUNDAY, 09 nov, 08
 
<xsl:value-of select="format-date(xs:date('2008-11-09'), '[Fn], [D1o] [MNn,*-3], [Y]')"/>
// sunday, 9th Nov, 2008
