Psycho Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 You need to look at those two functions and what they expect - you have the parameters messed up. date() takes a string as the first parameter to determine the format and an optional second parameter for a timestamp strtotime() takes a string representing a data and an optional second parameter of a timestamp. Your code has both of the parameters for those two function put into the strtotime() function. So,it is giving you that error because the second parameter you passed to strtotime() is not a timestamp. Try <?php echo date("d M Y", strtotime($order_row['od_date']));?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/279671-a-non-well-formed-numeric-value-encountered/#findComment-1438422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
