Re: newbie date time question

OK, looks like I have fixed problem, using:

    	$format = 'd/m/Y g:i:s A';
    	$dt = date_create_from_format($format, $d[0]);

$dt2 = date('r', $dt->getTimestamp());

        $data[] = array(strtotime($dt2), $d[1]);

Not elegant but it gives me the date/time value. Thanks, Adam and Richard DN On 23/06/11 12:51 AM, Adam Balogh wrote:

$dt is an object as the error says, so you cant echo it, becouse its not a string (it can be with __toString magic method, or use print_r/var_dump to output your object). Try the format ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.format.php) method on your $dt object. On Wed, Jun 22, 2011 at 4:41 PM, David Nicholls<dcn@dcnicholls.com> wrote:

hi, you have a PM(/AM) in your date ($d[0]), so put an "A" (Uppercase Ante meridiem and Post meridiem) format char to your $format variable. b3ha

Thanks, Adam. Tried that and it's now throwing an error: Catchable fatal error: Object of class DateTime could not be converted to string in<xxx.php> on line 12 Line 12 follows the attempt at conversion

10      $format = 'd/m/Y h:i:s A';
