note 69683 deleted from function.date by colder

Note Submitter: andysharp at swbell dot net Reason: bad code ---- I have found using date and strtotime together is a quick way to convert between PHP and MySQL date formats. e.g. //In the web form... <input name="frmDate" type="text" value="<?php echo date("m/d/y",strtotime($row["dbDate"])); ?>" /> //then saving to the database... UPDATE TBL01 SET dbDate = '".date("Y-m-d",strtotime($_REQUEST["frmDate"]))."'; You can use Javascript on your form to make sure you get a valid date, or handle the variable before injecting it into your query.
