How do I change the date format so it reads Day-month-Year (example 13-05-2013) in the output and allows me to put it in that format in the input form.. I read a couple of pages how to do it but that did not work so I hope someone can either fix it for me or tell me exactly what to change so i can learn from that..

 

much appriciated

 

The input and edit form

        // connect to the database
        include("connect-db.php");

        // Maakt nieuw/edit record formulier
        function renderForm($klantnummer = '', $bedrijfsnaam ='', $adres ='', $postcode ='', $plaats ='', $londerhoud ='', $aantal ='', $vonderhoud='', $error = '', $id = '')
        { ?>

What/where is your date field? How is the date stored in your database?

 

Functions you'll want to look at are date and/or strtotime (depening on how you're storing the date).

 

These are date fields and they are stored in the database as type Date in edit/add form.

<strong>Laatste onderhoud:<br><small>jaar-maand-dag</small></strong> <input type="text" name="londerhoud"
value="<?php echo $londerhoud; ?>"/><br/>
<strong>Volgende onderhoud:<br><small>jaar-maand-dag</small></strong> <input type="text" name="vonderhoud"
value="<?php echo $vonderhoud; ?>"/><p/>

$londerhoud = htmlentities($_POST['londerhoud'], ENT_QUOTES);
$vonderhoud = htmlentities($_POST['vonderhoud'], ENT_QUOTES);

Although now I see mixed up the 2 forms I have so the bottom field is from a different form but the they are the same way build so if i know how to do one of the 2 I can do the other myself..

 

This is also a date which needs to be changed

echo "<td>" . $row->vervaldatum . "</td>";

In what format is the date currently formatted for $_POST['londerhoud'] and $_POST['vonderhoud']?

 

I will also reiterate which function you'll need to use a I said earlier.

Select date in format day-month-Year (01-01-2001) from a date column.

SELECT DATE_FORMAT(date_column,'%d-%m-%Y') AS date FROM table

 

Does it matter where I place that on the page or does it need to be in the line where I actually print the date. Does that work for both the input form to put into the script aswell as the script that displays it on the page or do I only need it to put it correctly into the database and I can simply keep the echo as is?

It's a MySQL function, so it goes in the query where you get the date fields from the database. More information can be found here:
