note 23109 added to function.explode

If you want to simply exchange, for example DD.MM.YYYY date format for nice DD MONTH YYYY (example: 13 January 2002) you may use this function: ## SHOW_DATE function show_date($date) { $date = explode(".", $date); if($date[1] == 01) $date[1] = "January"; elseif($date[1] == 02) $date[1] = "February"; elseif($date[1] == 03) $date[1] = "March"; elseif($date[1] == 04) $date[1] = "April"; elseif($date[1] == 05) $date[1] = "May"; elseif($date[1] == 06) $date[1] = "June"; elseif($date[1] == 07) $date[1] = "July"; elseif($date[1] == 08) $date[1] = "August"; elseif($date[1] == 09) $date[1] = "Semptember"; elseif($date[1] == 10) $date[1] = "October"; elseif($date[1] == 11) $date[1] = "November"; elseif($date[1] == 12) $date[1] = "December"; $date = "$date[0] $date[1] $date[2]"; return $date; } So from ugly 13.01.2002 you will obtain nice 13 January 2002 :^) Of course you may use different separator than "." if you want... -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.explode.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+23109 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+23109 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+23109
