Hi,
In my functional test plan, I need to assert a page contains today's =
date string as MM/DD/YYYY (e.g. 01/02/2004 for Jan 2, 2004) or not.  I =
tried to use JMeter javascript function to dynamically generate the date =
string. It seems JMeter javascript cannot run multiple lines of code =
(Please confirm this), I finally end up at an ugly, but close to work =
solution by defining a variable name as 'today' and value part as:
=20
${__javaScript((((new Date().getMonth()+1)<10)?('0'+new =
Date().getMonth()+1):(new Date().getMonth()+1))+"/"+(new =
Date().getDate()<10?('0'+new Date().getDate()):new =
Date().getDate())+"/"+(new Date().getYear()+1900),)}  =20
=20
I said "close to work" as above code does return MM/DD/YYYY as expected =
but it somehow always appends with 3 white spaces at the end of it. =
These white spaces prevents me from using ${today} in the assertion as =
in the page the date has no space following it.

What I need your help are:
1. Is there a elegant way to generate MM/DD/YYYY in JMeter?
2. How to trim the white spaces at an javascript return (again in =
JMeter)?

Thanks a lot for your help in advance.
