 Posted: Mon Apr 04, 2005 9:06 pm Post subject: PHP date & mktime function problem |
 |
|
The following code creates the right date:
| Code: | | $date = date("l jS F Y", mktime(0,0,0,4,3,2005)); |
However, if I use the same "0,0,0,4,3,2005" extracted from a database as "$row['Updated']" it shows today's date.
| Code: | | $date = date("l jS F Y", mktime($row['Updated'])); |
Does anyone know why this happens?
---
php date function explained.
NOTE: the date is in the "wrong" (American) format, as that is how the function "mktime" requires it.
The date should be displayed as Sunday 3rd April 2005

thanks, but that's not it. I now get the following error:
| Quote: | | Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in E:\Servers\Abyss Web Server\htdocs\Game\info.php on line 27 |
Line 27 is where that code is located

Oops, I didn't see, it wasn't quoted, sorry :P
| Quote: | | $date = date("l jS F Y", mktime($row['Updated'])); |
That should work... dunno why it didn't.
