Converting back from Unix Time Stamp

[homchz]

I am looking to get back to a real time display from a UNIX Time Stamp.

I can fins plenty of ways to put a real date into a time stamp but how do you convert back out?

Any tips are appreciated.

It takes a few tries to understand the php.net information sometimes. So if anyone is looking to do the same thing and get stuck here you go.

Create a variable for the timestamp. I am pulling it from a database but will use one time stamp for demonstration

<?php
$timestamp = 1122814800;

print date("M/D/Y",$timestamp);
?>

M/D/Y can be any configuration of time display you want. See the link in above post for definitions.

You can also set a variable for the print out put.

<?php
$timestamp = 1122814800;

$date = date("M/D/Y",$timestamp);

print $date;

?>
