According to the documentation about Date helpers ( http://www.symfony-project.com/content/book/page/templating_i18n_helpers.html ), it should be possible to use the pattern "dddd" for formatting a day. However, it is not the case with the trunk. Here is a fix for lib/i18n/sfDateFormat.class.php, line 380 to 401 :
/**
* Get the day of the month.
* "d" for non-padding, "dd" will always return 2 characters.
* "dddd" will return the day name
* @param array getdate format.
* @param string a pattern.
* @return string day of the month
*/
protected function getDay($date, $pattern='d')
{
$day = $date['mday'];
switch($pattern)
{
case 'd':
return $day;
case 'dd':
return str_pad($day, 2,'0',STR_PAD_LEFT);
case 'dddd':
return $this->getDayInWeek($date);
default:
throw new sfException('The pattern for day of '.
'the month is "d" or "dd" or "dddd".');
}
}
