note 85969 added to function.strtotime

Historically, the "English" text to date parsers in PHP only accept the illogical American format of "mm/dd/yyyy". In this case, don't use strtotime, construct the date manually e.g : <?php $r = "29/9/2008"; $date = explode("/",$r); echo date("D d M",mktime(0,0,0,$date[1],$date[0],$date[2]))."\n"; ?> ---- Server IP: 92.48.74.199 Probable Submitter: 193.108.73.47 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85969 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85969/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85969/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85969/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85969/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85969/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85969/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85969 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85969 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
