Question

In my aspx page I have repeater binding with date. It is showing full date and I want to format it to short date. Please guide me how to format date in aspx code (not in C# or Vb)

Here is my code:

<a class="CalendarLinks" href="readmore.aspx?wkdate=<%# Eval("cldID") %>">
                                <%# Eval("cldDate")%></a>

Thanks

You can use overloaded Eval to pass the format

<a class="CalendarLinks" href="readmore.aspx?wkdate=<%# Eval("cldID") %>">
                                <%# Eval("cldDate", "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}")%></a>
