Ruby or PHP strftime Without Leading Zeros
Submitted by Aaron Longwell on Fri, 2007-04-27 13:22.
The docs for strftime() in both PHP and Ruby seem to assume that you prefer your dates and times to be formatted with leading zeros padding the output to 2 characters. For the minutes, this seems logical enough (4:05 instead of 4:5), but for the hours field it can be a little unattractive (04:05). Here are the format strings you can use for non-zero padded versions of the fields:
%l: The hour in 12-hour format, without a leading zero
%e: The day of the month, without a leading zero
Thanks for that. Just to be
Thanks for that.
Just to be clear the hour noted above is a lowercase L (el) and not and uppercase I (eye).

I can't get either of these
I can't get either of these to work for me:
irb(main):001:0> t = Time.now
=> Sat Jan 05 17:26:26 -0500 2008
irb(main):002:0> t.strftime("%e")
=> ""
irb(main):003:0> t.strftime("%e:") # Was the colon significant? Nope.
=> ":"
irb(main):004:0> t.strftime("%l")
=> ""
irb(main):005:0> t.strftime("%B") # Yeah, regular stuff works.
=> "January"
irb(main):006:0>
Am I missing something?
Thanks!

The above examples work for me as expected. Perhaps the Ruby version is significant? I'm on Ruby 1.8.5.
