PHP : Converting MySQL DateTime format to 'Monday, 4 feb 2002'

[SkiNLaB]

There's gotta be a function out there to convert the MySQL DateTime format to something like 'Monday, 4 feb 2002' for eg, or similar...

Thanx

well you can try this

getdate(timestamp); // returns an associative array with date/time settings for the specified timestamp

other than that I would store the date using date(l j M Y);
'Monday, 4 feb 2002'

$today = date("l, j M Y"); // Saturday 10 Mar 2002

l = lowercase L

$new_date = date["l' j N Y, G:i:s", strtotime[$date_time]];
echo "$new_date";

the original string in mysql format was date_time

this seems to do the trick.
