Note Submitter: jdavid at NO_SPAM dot skynet dot be ---- If you are using MySQL database timestamps and you wish to display for example the time and date represented by such a timestamp, you can use the following function: function DateAndTime ($timestamp) { list($year,$month,$day,$hour,$minute,$second) = sscanf($timestamp,"%4s%2s%2s%2s%2s%2s"); setlocale("LC_TIME","nl_BE.ISO8859-15@euro"); return strftime("%c", mktime($hour,$minute,$second, $month,$day,$year)); } This function will return the correct date and time in the locale of your choice, in the default representation. example: ---------- list($timestamp,$dummy1, ..) = mysql_fetch_row($result); $displaytime = DateAndTime($timestamp); echo "The date and time is: $displaytime"; I hope you find this usefull ..
