Thank you for your response. The notice is in the Subject Line of the email: Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered So you are saying I have to convert the current yyyy-mm-dd:HH:MM:SS date format, to UNIX timestamp value then call Date() to format the UNIX timestamp as Month, Day, Year? If so, is it recommended to do that at the database level or the program level. I guess it would make sense to convert all dates to UNIX timestamp for database storage then convert at necessary. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: Naintara [mailto:naintara@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Saturday, September 22, 2007 11:13 AM To: 'PHP-DB Mailing List' Subject: RE: Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered I don't see the NOTICE message. Perhaps a timezone notice? Lookup the date() function in the php manual. The time parameter should be a unix timestamp value, so $CTS should contain an integer value. You can also find ways to convert the time value you have to unix timestamp, in the manual. -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Sunderlin [mailto:stephen.sunderlin@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Saturday, September 22, 2007 7:48 PM To: 'PHP-DB Mailing List' Subject: Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered I'm getting the above NOTICE with the following statement: Echo date('d/m/y',$CTS); Where $CTS = 2007-09-22 10:09:31 And 31/12/69 is being echoed.
