how to set timestap format in HTMLLayout in log4j

dear friends,

i have to set timestamp format in HTMLLayout in log4j. currently it displays time in milliseconds however i want it in my own format(like say yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm). Can i do that by changing configuration in .properties file,so i mean is there any attribute of HTMLLayout that i can set directly or do i have to do it programatically.
how do i do that . please do reply

There aren't may rules that you need to worry about here on the Ranch, but one that we take very seriously regards the use of proper names. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and adjust your display name to match it.

In particular, your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.

Thanks!
