Function split is deprecated

[Xtremer360]

I keep getting a Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated on line....

 

Can someone explain this?

 

function convertdate($date)
{
list ($year, $month, $day) = split ('-', $date);
$date=trim($month)."-".trim($day)."-".trim($year);
return $date;
}

You should use preg_split to split a string by a regular expression. But in that case I don't see why you can't use explode, you're not even using a regular expression.

What version of PHP are you using?

 

<?

phpinfo();

?>

 

That function has been depreciated and may no longer be supported:

You need to figure out how to accomplish what "split ('-', $date)" would do using

either preg_split or explode... I'm not familiar with them enough myself to help you in a timely manner, but you will be on the right path.
