mktime question

hi there,

i have a date (e.g "11-12-2002" (dd-mm-YY)) and i am getting a timestamp for it by using: the following

$timestamp = mktime (0,0,0, 12, 11,2002);

however when i convert the timestamp back to a date-time using the following:

$date = date ("d-m-Y h:i:s" , $timestamp);

i get:

11-12-2002 12:00:00

however i don't know where the 12 hours is coming from... i'm sure when i used this method on linux (instead of windows) i got zero hours...

obviously i could just remove the extra hours but i don't really want to do it that way, just to have zero hours in the first place... any ideas?

According to the PHP manual:

h - hour, 12-hour format; i.e. "01" to "12"

Therefore, ur 0 hour, which is midnight, would be outputted as 12 (AM).

I think you want:

H - hour, 24-hour format; i.e. "00" to "23"

so that you can get the 0.
