Format .now in RFC 3339

Hi

I have to make an atom xml, and asked to add the current time in RFC 3339 but i don't know how.

the datetime is "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSS'Z'"

Thanks

It seems like you forgot to convert your string to date object, convert your string to date using ?datetime("yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss") and then use ?iso_ut on it.

Let me know if this helps.

To be more accurate i use datesupport.now, and i want it to have RFC 3339 format.

  Well i have found that ?iso_utc done it pretty accuratly.
  Now i have another issue, i get a topic with REST API and topic.post_time?iso_utc do an error message (string instead of date).
