Date manipulation.

Fazer

Hello,

I am not sure how I would do this, but here it goes. Suppose I have a date or date with time such as "2000-10-45 17:36:57" and I want it to me transformed into simple format such as Month Day, Year. Can anyone help shed some light into how this can be done?

Thanks,

Fazer

Thanks for your reply but I am still not quite sure since I will be getting the dates from a database and it will be in a certain order so mktime would be a little hard to use...

What other method(s) could I use that might be helpful?

if your database is mysql (you didn't mention, so I'll assume it is), then use DATE_FORMAT()

Easiest way to format dates from a date or time field IMO.

Ah yes, I am using a MySQL database and thanks. I think it will suite me perfect. Thank you once again.
