Problem:
[pfarrell] Working with HTTP time string dates is a pain in CFML because there is no built in function that converts a HTTP time string into a CFML datetime. I propose this function.createDatetimeFromHttpTimeString(httpTimeString:string) -> CFML dateBelow is a concept in CFML:<cffunction name="createDatetimeFromHttpTimeString" access="public" returntype="date" output="false"hint="Creates an UTC datetime from an HTTP time string."><cfargument name="httpTimeString" type="string" required="true"hint="An HTTP time string in the format of '11 Aug 2010 17:58:48 GMT'." /><cfset var rawArray = ListToArray(ListLast(arguments.httpTimeString, ","), " ") /><cfset var rawTimePart = ListToArray(rawArray[4], ":") /><cfreturn CreateDatetime(rawArray[3], DateFormat("#rawArray[2]#/1/2000", "m"), rawArray[1], rawTimePart[1], rawTimePart[2], rawTimePart[3]) /></cffunction>This has been entered as issue 907 in Railo as well:https://jira.jboss.org/browse/RAILO-907This has been entered as issue 260 in OpenBD. as wellhttp://code.google.com/p/openbluedragon/issues/detail?id=260
