Hello, I need to collect persons birth date from web form. The form is this kind: <td>Birthday</td> <td>date <input type="text" name="day" size="5" maxlength="2"> month <input type="text" name="month" size="5" maxlength="2"> year <input type="text" name="year" size="10" maxlength="4"> </td> Then I need to combine these in to a one $variable. Something like this... $birthday = $day . $month . $year; How can I add the . (dots) to the date so it would look like for example this: 28.05.1974 Thanks -Will -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
