[SOLVED] date conversion help

[suyesh.amatya]

i have date format as 2000808(yyyymm) now how can i display it like aug,2008 in php

[MasterACE14]

use date(); function, look it up in the PHP manual

[suyesh.amatya]

echo date ( 'Y-M' , 2000808);

 

the above mentioned date is diplayed as 1970-Jan.I want it as 20008-aug.

The string "2000808" is not a valid date string. If you mean "200808", do

<?php
$str = "200808";
echo date('Y-M,$str . "01");
?>

$year='2008';

$month='08';

$my_date=$year."-".$month;

$my_time = strtotime($my_date);

echo date(" F Y", $my_time);

 

This gives the desired result as August 2008.

 

Thanks
