note 55796 added to function.date

If you need to convert the "short textual representation of a month, three letters" to "Numeric representation of a month, with leading zeros" for some reason, here is a simple function to do that: <? function monthNumber($month) { $months = array(1 => 'Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'); for ($i = 1; $i < 13; $i++) { if ($month == $months[$i]) { if ($i < 10) $num = "0" . $i; else $num = $i; } } if (!$num) return false; return $num; } echo monthNumber("Jan"); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55796 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55796&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55796&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55796&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55796&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55796&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55796&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55796&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
