[SOLVED] Date format issues

[emma57573]

Im having problems formatting a date from mysql to php

 

In the database its

 

2008-10-19 08:48:09

 

and I want it to read 19 Oct 2008 8:48 (or something simular) in php

 

Instead at the moment its reading Thu Jan 01st,1970 01:33 am  No matter what date is in the database!!

 

I am using a classified script and I have acomlished this on other php pages by using the following

 

echo freetpl_date($rst["get_date"],0);

 

But I can find the function freetpl_date anywhere to see whats happening!

 

If there a simple way to format this date?

Look into date() and strtotime(). You can achieve what you want when both are using together.

try this

date("j M Y h:i:s");
