echo time in different format

Gordonator

echo the time in a nice format.

There's preceding connect and query code, but it's all working

<? echo "The file was created"
.date("r",strtotime(odbc_result($exc,"File_Date"))); ?>

I just used an example from the manual, which works but returns: Sun, 3 Nov 2002 00:00:00 -0500

I want it to just Display: Nov 3, 2002 and cut out the time and dayname.

use date format "M j, Y" instead of r. Might want to put an S behind the j too, to get the full readable day. Check out formats on the date manual page.

Try http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
Tip: Always look up functions (like date()) on php.net if you want to learn about their functions, formats, arguments etc.
