NaN etc. shows the formatting is wrong somewhere. Use the format below and just change the date/time to suit.

It needs to match the format explained in this post exactly, otherwise the display will be wrong.

I just copied it, pasted it into my profile and personalised the info - if that makes sense?

If you are still struggling, drop me a PM and I'll sort it out for you.

Hi Woggles,

I have gone in and fixed them, are these flights for 2010 or 2011? The JFK one has 2011 so wanted to check.

As Mcuth says, the format needs to match exactly and it looks like you had missed the year out and used a . instead of a : with the time. Easy to do, so I also do as Jacki says and just copy and edit the original in the thread - much easier. [:)]

Thanks,
Sarah
