In the document I will need the current month, hence I use the $asctime(mmmm) function. This works great! It's just that my website is in Swedish, not English. This is why I tried to create a custom identifier that would return the current month in Swedish, based on the $asctime(mmmm) function. Here's my code: Code: manad { if ( $asctime(mmmm) == January ) return januari else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == February ) return februari else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == March ) return mars else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == April ) return april else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == May ) return maj else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == June ) return juni else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == July ) return juli else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == August ) return augusti else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == September ) return september else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == October ) return oktober else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == November ) return november else if ( $asctime(mmmm) == December ) return december } However, this doesn't seem to work! Whenever I try to do //echo -a $manad I get "* /echo: insufficient parameters", and I can't refer to it in scripts either. I'll gladly take any comments/help on this! (Yes, I did leave the {}-brackets on purpose, since it would mess up the code completely imo. ) Regards, Wishie

I cleaned it up a bit: If your wanting this to go in the remote section leave it how it is, however if you want it in the aliases section remove the word "alias" at the beginning.

Code:

alias manad {
  if ($asctime(mmmm) == January) return januari
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == February) return februari
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == March) return mars
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == April) return april
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == May) return maj
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == June) return juni
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == July) return juli
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == August) return augusti
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == September) return september
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == October) return oktober
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == November) return november
  elseif ($asctime(mmmm) == December) return december
}

I put them in the wrong section (remotes instead of aliases). feels as dumb as a donkey Well well, thanks a lot LostServ! I appreciate your concern. Regards, Wishie

Regards, Wishie You can still do them in the aliases section, putting alias infront like I did lets you put them in a remote file. One other thing I noticed is you had else if instead of elseif (its together). Anyway, your welcome
