Custom date format, to MySQL date


Cine

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

 

I have a string '12/04/1990', that's in the format dd/mm/yyyy.

 

I'm attempting to convert that string to a Date, and then insert that date into a MySQL DATE field.

 

The problem is, every time I try to do so, I keep getting values like this in the database: 1970-01-01.

 

 

Any ideas?

 

 

Much appreciated.

Show us some code and I'll take a look for you.

 

I currently have this: Date("Y-m-d", $this->dob);

 

...which outputs 1970-01-01 and is stored in the database.

 

I need a way of formatting that custom date string ($this->dob) into a format that MySQL can understand which is(Y-m-d).

 

But I don't know how :(
