One way is to explode it on "/" and then just re-output it with "-"

hi, would anybody be able to show me how to do this, as ive never done it before? thanks..

Or string replace / for - ?

[effigy]

echo implode('-', array_reverse(explode('/', 'dd/mm/yyyy')));

[dbo]

Hahaha, that's wrong on so many levels! But it should work

[dbo]

Oh, I didn't read very closely, string replace obviously doesn't work, sorry.

Here's another way to skin that cat. This will also ensure leading zeros are added to single digit months and days if not included in the input:

 

<?php

echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime("1/6/2007"));
//Output 2007-01-06

?>
