Everything you need to know, you'll find in the manual section on [a href=\"http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php\" target=\"_blank\"]the date() function.[/a]

I know in javascript you simply use there preset date functions, I think php has those 2. at www.php.net, and I am reading that book on www.hudzilla.com it will help alot, as you can learn all of php off that, or go to the functions section and look around through the ones about dates.

also this might help I found it.

specifically what you would need are chapters
4.5. Working with Date and Time

4.5.1. Reading the current time: time() and microtime()
4.5.2. Converting from a string: strtotime()
4.5.3. Converting to a string: date()
4.5.4. Converting from components: mktime()


hope that helps.
