Date only conversion

mdojet

in my datebase is the date 2004-11-10. I need to take that date and convert it to November 10, 2004. I looked on PHP.net and couldnt find anything. Can someone help?

Thanks

the strtotime function combined with the date function is your best bet:

echo date("F j, Y", strtotime($date_from_db));

Works like a charm! I didnt realize how easy that was! Sometimes the scripts on php.net get a bit overwhelming..Thanks!!

if you are using mySQL then you should look at the DATE_FORMAT function.
