Is links 2.0 Year 2000 compliant?
I did a search for this topic but couldn't find much info.

Does any one know if links is 2000 compliant?
Has it been or has anyone tested it?

Cheers

If Links is y2k compliant (and I sure hope it really is) why is there code that says $year - 1900 in links.cfg under sub date_to_unix {

I don't know much about it, but could this cause a problem?

To see an example of the script that Alex recommends in the other Thread, check out:

You will see that the unix_time translates into the different dates appropriately.
