How to display week number? [message #262750]

Anyone got a trick for how to display the week number of the current week?
Or the week number given a date?
This seems to be missing from the functions available in the BIRT report
tool. Also Javascript doesn't seem to have such a function.

Also how can I check if a certain date from a dataset is in the past or
the future?

Rob,

Try
importPackage(Packages.java.util);
cl = new GregorianCalendar();
cl.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_MONTH);

Jason,

Where would I put this code?
I want to show the current week number in the header of a report template.

Rob,

Add a data element to the header and copy the code in.

Thanks!

That was close to what I wanted.
Modify it to "Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR" and it is perfect.
