How Can Formatting A Date Field In PHP Be So Difficult?
I have a column in a MySQL database called "rlsdate". Info is stored in the normal DATE format (YYYY-MM-DD). How can I extract a row, order the results of the query by 'rlsdate' but then when I display the field, have it formated like "September 14, 2005". I have actually been searching for an answer to this for months. There has to be a way.

Put Today's Date Into A MySQL "date" Formated Field
My MySQL table has a field that is set as type "date." I need to get today's date, and insert it into that field. The default for that MySQL field is 2006-00-00. I know about the date() function.

Php How To Treat Mysql Field Like A Date?
I have a query that looks like this: (I insert the date created with the php date function) $status = "Active"; //(I cannot use the mysql timestamp function for other reason). $curdate = date("m/j/Y H:i"); $owner = "not assigned"; @ $db_connect = mysql_connect("localhost", "$db_username", "$db_password"); if (!$db_connect) { echo "Unable to connect to the database; exit; } mysql_select_db("$db"); $query = "insert into tickets (user, status, loannum, problem, description, multiples, ticketnumber, ip, office, submissiontime, ticketowner) values ('$user1', '$status', '$loannum', '$problem', '$description', '$multiples', '$ticketnumber', '$ip', '$office', '$curdate', '$owner')"; $result = mysql_query($query); I need to pull out the last fifty records from the database, so I use this query: $order = $order; if ($order ==""){ $order = "user"; } mysql_select_db("$db"); $query = "select * from tickets ORDER by $order"; $result = mysql_query($query); $num = mysql_num_rows($result); if I order the tickets by submission time, it orders the items, but not correctly. It looks like php treating the submissiontime like integer: example: 12/1/2003 16:51 12/1/2003 16:58 12/10/2003 12:29 12/10/2003 12:36 12/11/2003 07:10 12/2/2003 09:16

Phpmyadmin/MySQL - Dynamic Date Field?
I am a relative newbie for php/MySQL, and most of what I am doing is based on being self-taught using someone else's well-written code, and my own googling the answers to my questions. I'm doing a php/MySQL page that reads data out of a MySQL database. Longer term, I'll do a data-entry screen allowing me to modify the database or add new records. For now, I'm just using phpmyadmin to data enter stuff. Is there a way to set up a date field, Last_Update, that would automatically update to today's date any time a record was added or changed using phpmyadmin? Not sure if I'm asking the question clearly. What I want would be that, let's say that I add a new record today, April 23. The Last_Update field for the record would automatically be April 23. If I go in and modify and part of that record on April 29, Last_Update automatically changes to April 29 for that record. If that's not possible, then how in php/MySQL would I display on a web page "Information last updated on mm/dd/yyyy" based on the contents of the database?

Php Date-Formatting
I have a date value that I pull from a .csv file. After reading the file and storing the values in an array the value of the date could be found in $array[1], for example. while (($data = fgetcsv($handle,5000, ",")) !== FALSE) { $mydate = $data[3]; // here is the array value that holds the date } The date will be in either m/d/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy format. Here is the problem. I need to display this date on the page in "long" format - i.e. January 5, 2005 instead of 1/5/2005 or 01/05/2005. I have tried to use the date() function, however I can only get the formatting to work with the current date and not with an 'existing' date. date("d.m.Y", $mydate); // this does not work, I get a date from 1969...

Formatting A Date
I have two varibles, one called $cycle_through_the_month and another called $display_month. "$cycle_through_the_month" displays a date, such as "5" for the 5th day, "18" for the 18th day and so on "$display_month" displays a month and year, such as "MARCH 2007" or "NOVEMBER 2007". Combined together like "$cycle_through_the_month $display_month" produces something like 2 APRIL 2007 or 26 JUNE 2007. What I want to do is to format these so that they print out like 02/12/2007 or 29/11/2007

In my MySql database the format of date is yyyy-mm-dd. Here where i live we write dates in the format dd-mm-yyyy. I can retreive and flip the date in a select statement, but can't figure out how to insert and update dates into the table. In the forms users write it in the format dd-mm-yyyy, and when put into db it has to be flipped to yyyy-mm-dd. Have googled without any success and looked in here too, but nothing seemed to have put me in the right direction.

UNIX Mktime To MySQL Date Or Date
A form that sends a starting date and an ending date. I have figured out how to tell the difference between the two and even rip the difference into an array because I need to compare the individual dates against a mySQL database to pull results from a particular date in a series. This is no problem. My problem is that teh mySQL database uses DATE as a field definition and this can not be changed. I managed to pull the date differences using some cleaver mktime stuff but no I do not know how to get this 1072242000 into this 2003-12-24... Is there a function that reverses the mktime result into a usable date format? I would take anything at this point and I can explode and then array it to get what I want - but there has to be something. Code:

Convert Date To A MySQL Acceptable Date
I've got a date that looks like this: 06/08/2007 AM I'm trying to convert it to a MySQL acceptable date so it can be inserted into the data and read as normal MySQL dates would read so I can use my date searching functions.
