Hey, I am grabbing a date from a row in my table which is currently formatted as:
date("Y-m-d")
2010-09-29

So in my code I have something like this:

$row['date'];

How do I use this to rearrange the date to look like:

09-29-2010

I looked at the formatting tutorials, but they explain how to format it for the date you are currently setting into a variable.

PHP Code:

<?php
$date = "2010-09-29";
$dArray = explode("-", $date);
$newDate = $dArray[1]. "-" .$dArray[2] ."-". $dArray[0];
echo $newDate
?>

Just replace $date with the database item.

That did it. Thanks very much!

No problem

Or

PHP Code:

$epoch = strtotime($row['time']); 
$time = strftime("%d-%m-%Y", $epoch);
echo $time;
