Nice.
I just tried it and I can’t get ’am’ on my Vista machine either. In fact, a number of the formats that should work produce no output at all.
Thanks again, Microsoft.
BTW, this works fine and you could make a custom output modifier (mytime):
/* mytime */
$output = date('h:i a', $output) ;
// or this if you want the current time: $output = date('h:i a') ;
return $output;
