Date Format DD/MM/YYYY And Not MM/DD/YYYY.
I want to be able to insert stuff into a database, thats fine yeah, but how would I go about sorting it by the date it was submitted?

I am in the UK where the date format is DD/MM/YYYY and not MM/DD/YYYY, I know that mysql takes the date in the US format of MM/DD/YYYY, is there anyway to change this and successfully sort the data by the date it was submitted, e.g. have the oldest at the bottom and newest at the top?

Date Validation YYYY-MM-DD Format
Hi, I am using forms which input dates into a mysql table, these work fine. However I would like to validate these into the correct format which is YYYY-MM-DD. So I am guessing I need an ereg function which looks for a string of 4 followed by a dash, then 2 then a dash and finally two more.
The code I have so far is:

$date_pattern = "([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2})";
if (!preg_match($date_pattern,$EventStart))
{
echo ("<br>Wrong date format");
$FormValid="False";

Changing Date And Time Format
Currently, the script has dates formatted in the European way (day, month, year) and time is in 24-hour mode. I want dates to be month, day, year and time in 12-hour mode. I tried changing this to fix the date:

header('Expires: ' .  gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s', time() + 86400) . ' GMT');

To this:

header('Expires: ' .  gmdate('D, M d Y H:i:s', time() + 86400) . ' GMT');

That change had no apparent effect, so I'm not sure what to do. It's probably something really obvious and I just don't see it.

Converting To Textile Format
I'm thinking of converting my homebrewed CMS to allow me to enter news articles in Textile format. Much faster entries and I can let the CMS handle the xhtml formatting after I submit.

Of course, this means going through previously submitted articles and changing the formatting to the new style. Most of the stuff will be simple search and replace, but URLs are going to be a whole different ball o' wax. With hundreds of articles, an automated approach would leave some of my hair intact.

E.g. an URL in Textile formatting is represented as "linktext":url

This is where we get into my weak area...regex.

My initial thought would be to explode the story with </a>. That way, each story segment in the array would end with the linktext being any text after the >

Where I'm stuck is working out how to get the URL out of the href part and then tossing it back into the string as textile format.

After exploding with </a>, a string segment would look like this:

Millions of filmgoers went to see the new movie about <a href="http://www.example.com">Example

Which needs to be replaced with:

Millions of filmgoers went to see the new movie about "Example":http://www.example.com

makes it looks like: 2005-02-15 14:44:51

I want it to look like:
Wednesday 15th of January 2005 05:51:38 AM

but when I try "date("l dS of F Y h:i:s A");" I get the format, but with
the CURRENT time. I can't get the time stamped in that format.
