[SOLVED] date modification

[lindm]

I have the date as string in the format YYYY-MM-DD. Having problems finding a way to:

 

1. Add one day and remove one year (2006-12-31 would become 2006-01-01)

2. Remove -MM-DD (2006-12-31 would become 2006)

3. Only keep for instance 06 of 2006-12-31

 

Been looking at various date functions (http://se.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php) with no luck as well as str_replace...

Try strtotime.

$date = '01/24/2006'; 
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime($date));
