English ordinal suffix in CF

I need to display something like

on this 26th day of January, 2005

is there no defined function for English ordinal suffix in CF? I know there's one for PHP and I've googled several different keywords but they all come up w/ only PHP code. This isn't listed in Macromedia's manual on dateformat either. Anyone knows? Thanks

well, in the mean time, i went ahead and use a switch statement to check whether to use th or st, nd, rd .... if there's a predefined method then it would be better for next time

cflib.org has getOrdinal() which looks like it may fit the bill.

Always check cflib.org if the built in functions won't do what you need.
