Hello, I've got dates stored in a mysql database. The field is of type date so the value is something like: "2010-09-29" I'm wanting to display them as in U.S. dates as in month, day, year. I had a function that did this, now it is not working and I am perplexed as to why. Here's my echo statement: <?php echo sqlDateFormat($row['date']); ?> The $row['date'] is coming out of the mysql database. Here's the sqlDateFormat function: function sqlDateFormat($value) { $date = $value; $date = strtotime($date); $date = date('m-d-y', $date); return $date; } I'd appreciate any suggestions as to why this isn't working. Thanks. Dave. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
