acctman Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I'm receiving this 03_03am31e_foTue, 03 Jan 2006 05:37:20 -050001am31 for my date output. I'm trying to get Tue, 03 Jan 2006 05:37:20 only. Does anyone know why i'm receiving all the other weird info in front and back of the date format i'm trying to achieve? //value of $row['com_time'] = 1136284640 $date_c = date(d_date_format,$row['com_time']); echo $date_c. '<br>'; echo $row['com_time']; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/148595-solved-date-format-output-weird-result/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 I think d_date_format is supposed to be a variable ($)? $d_date_format Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/148595-solved-date-format-output-weird-result/#findComment-780322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 LOL, that's really wild. Php (in it's unhelpful way) treated d_date_format as 'd_date_format' and date() used each of those format characters in producing the output.

That's funny, going to take a look at date() functions code...

acctman Posted March 9, 2009 Author Share Posted March 9, 2009 I think d_date_format is supposed to be a variable ($)? $d_date_format thanks. I saw that as an example used on a site and they didnt have the $ variable, which is odd. even after googling it I found code written that way. anyway I read throught the date() and came up with this. thanks. $date_c = date("D M j G:i:s",$row['com_time']); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/148595-solved-date-format-output-weird-result/#findComment-780370 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Baker Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 thanks. I saw that as an example used on a site and they didnt have the $ variable, which is odd. even after googling it I found code written that way.They might have had a constant called d_date_format defined though Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/148595-solved-date-format-output-weird-result/#findComment-780371 Share on other sites More sharing options...
