I store a timestamp in a database of when a record was inserted. When I pull it out, I format it like this SELECT DATE_FORMAT(insert_date,'%b %e (%r)') AS idate Now I would like to subtract 2 hours from the hour part of the timestamp. What's the easiest way to do this, before or after the formatting? In PHP or mySQL function? Can someone give me some code of how they would do this. Thanks, Johan
