RE: [PHP] How to convert '2001032018' -> '2001 03 20 18' ? (Fomat ing Date)

function sql_to_unix_time($timeString) { return mktime(substr($timeString, 8,2), substr($timeString, 10,2), substr($timeString, 12,2), substr($timeString, 4,2), substr($timeString, 6,2), substr($timeString, 0,4)); } you can use the above function to convert your mysql time stamp to a unix timestamp (how long ago was the epoch? ) and use php time related functions (such as time() )to manipulate it however you want. PS: The function is not mine. -----Original Message----- From: SED [mailto:sed@sed.is] Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2001 1:59 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] How to convert '2001032018' -> '2001 03 20 18' ? (Fomating Date) Hi, I'm trying to convert the timestamp '2001032018' into '2001 03 20 18' or an Array which I can easily format. Do you remember any date or string function I can use?
