Extract Year

That particular format isn't supported by strtotime(), but since you already have the date in a string, and php's date() function is rather slow, why not just explode it?

 

$date = '2012-06-03';
$year = explode('-', $date);
echo $year[0];

Actually that format is supported by strtotime. If your original code didn't work, that's not your actual code or actual data. I'll guess the date was from someplace like a form or a database and it wasn't what you thought (probably an empty value.)
