   Hi, I'm designing a template for a client.

   He wants his date to display like it does on a site like http://mezzoblue.com

   So he wants the date to be like this:

   NOV
   15

   I'm unable to figure out how to do this, as I don't have the php experience to do this. Can anyone help me?

   Basically this is what I would need it to look like (the HTML)

   <div class="calPage">Nov
   <div class="day">15</div>
   </div>

   What is the PHP that I need to put in the section which is now "Nov" to call the month in that format, and than what do I need to put so the date displays within that div.

   Thanks so much for any help in advance.

   BTW this is what it looks like statically:

   <span class="month"><?php the_time('m') ?><span class="day"><?php the_time('d') ?></span></span>

   Style it how you want (you may want to use div instead of span).

   Great that worked! I was using the wrong function and that was why it wasn't working (using the_date('M')) instead of time. THANKS!
