[SOLVED] Strings

[AnotherQuestion]

I have search & search google to find the answer without success.

 

I have a string which looks like e.g. ' 20090901 '

 

I would like for it to be echo as 01/09/2009

 

the format is always the same.

 

Thanks as always

Try this:

 

<?php
$str = ' 20090901 ';
$date = substr($str,7,2)."/".substr($str,5,2)."/".substr($str,1,4);
?>

What is the format of the string?

 

YYYYMMDD or YYYYDDMM

 

If it's the first format, you can use strtotime and date

 

<?php
$str = '20090901';
echo date('d/m/Y',strtotime($str));
?>
