MoFish Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 hello everyone.im currently making a script and am wanting to use the same "time posted" format in which is used in vbulletin forum. how exactly do I get this value using php? is there a php function to get a time like this or is this unique to vbulletin? [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/excl.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":excl:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"excl.gif\" /] example values:114913650611491618951149172533Thanks alot, MoFish.

AndyB Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 1149172533 - it sure looks like a Unix timestamp to me. Check the links nogray provided, then if it's till not clear ask a specific question.
