Hi I am needing to convert a d/m/y date such as 30/11/2004 into the format that mysql can use ie. 2004-11-20 If I try the following: $testdate="30/11/2004"; echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime($testdate)); the result is - 2006-06-11 I can't find any other function apart from strtotime to do this. Any ideas? Thanks Neil -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
