gmdate() uses timezones, too

[EviL_CodE]

function epochToDate($strDate) {
	#epochToDate(int date)
	#converts UNIX timestamp to date
	#requires xxxxxxxxxx (10)
	#returns dd/mm/yyyy

if(!$strDate) {
	Return;
}

$strDate=date("d/m/y", $strDate);
Return $strDate;
}

just use date():

date("formatting required",Unix timestamp);

There is a function, gettime( int timestamp ), i think, that returns an array with year, month, date etc..

$_time = gettime( int timestamp );

so the year would then be $_time['year'];
