note 29311 added to function.date

Here's another example of how to replace English month and weekday names into another language (Dutch in this example): function formatdate($timestamp, $format) { $weekdays = array('zondag', 'maandag', 'dinsdag', 'woensdag', 'donderdag', 'vrijdag', 'zaterdag'); $months = array('januari', 'februari', 'maart', 'april', 'mei', 'juni', 'juli', 'augustus', 'september', 'oktober', 'november', 'december'); preg_match_all('/[\\\]*[a-zA-Z]/', $format, $character); for($i = 0; $i < count($character[0]); $i++) { switch ($character[0][$i]) { case 'F': $character[1][$i] = $months[date('n', $timestamp)-1]; break; case 'M': $character[1][$i] = substr($months[date('n', $timestamp)-1], 0, 3); break; case 'l': $character[1][$i] = $weekdays[date('w', $timestamp)]; break; case 'D': $character[1][$i] = substr($weekdays[date('w', $timestamp)], 0, 3); break; default: $character[1][$i] = date($character[0][$i], $timestamp); } } $i = 0; $format = preg_replace('/[\\\]*[a-zA-Z]/e', "\$character[1][\$i++]", $format); return $format; } -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+29311 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+29311 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+29311
