[SOLVED] <pubDate> RFC-822 date-time problem ?

[plodos]

.sql

`rdate` datetime NOT NULL COMMENT 'registration date',

with this input '2009-02-12 04:28:08'

 

<?php
$timestamp = strtotime($opstr['rdate']);
$date = date('D, j M Y H:i:s', $timestamp);	

echo "
<item>
<title>".$opstr['sname']." ".$opstr['year']." - ".$opstr['name']." </title>
<description>".$opstr['city'].", ".$opstr['country']." - ".$opstr['cdate']."</description>
<link>".$opstr['link']."</link>
<pubDate>".$date."</pubDate>
</item>";
?>

 

RSS is not showing the time. I didnt apply the corrent time ?

Validator is giving this error : line 13, column 34: pubDate must be an RFC-822 date-time: Thu, 12 Feb 2009 04:28:08

Just use 'r' as the date() format specifier to get the correct RFC format.

I just change the date variable like

 

$date = date("r", strtotime($opstr["rdate"]));
