RE: [PHP-WIN] Date conversion

I'm pulling the "2002-04-02 00:00:00" from a database(mssql). It reads 04/02/2002 in the database table, but when you pull the value out with php, it converts it to 2002-04-02 00:00:00. Then I am trying to compare it with 7/11/2002 to see if it is > or <. It's not comparing properly. Not sure what to do. Seems kinda like a stupid sticking point.

Is that generated by a database, a PHP function, or user input on a website? The mktime(); function can probably help you, but take a look at it's funky paramaters. When you're done with mktime();, pass it to date(); with the paramaters you want (i.e. date(mdy, mktime(blah blah blah)); Good luck! -Dash -----Original Message----- From: Kit Kerbel [mailto:kerbel5@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2002 8:44 AM To: php-windows@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-WIN] Date conversion I would like to convert 2002-04-02 00:00:00 to the format, 04-02-2002....or m/d/Y How would I do this?
