Hi there.
I am currently intergrating a vbulletin forum with my website, and am now
merging the two databases together. On the vbulletin database all
times/dates are stored as a unix timestamp, but in the past I've always
stored mine as 21/3/2006 (for example.) I am now trying to get these unix
timestamps to display as dates / times on my website, but to no avail.
Once I see how to get it working I think I should be ok, so if anyone can
offer some assistance with this then it would be greatly appriciated.
At the moment, I have a select clause -->
<?php
mysql_select_db($database_main, $main);
$query_members = "SELECT userid, usergroupid, username, email, homepage,
usertitle, joindate, lastvisit, posts, ipaddress, msn FROM
user ORDER BY
userid ASC";
$members = mysql_query($query_members, $main) or die(mysql_error());
$row_members = mysql_fetch_assoc($members);
$totalRows_members = mysql_num_rows($members);
?>
And then I am trying to get this date to display as a human readable date.
-->
<?php echo $row_members['joindate']; ?>
Anyone have any ideas how? Many thanks.
