This is my date array:
$months = array (1 => 'January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May',
'June', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November',
'December');
you want, if you ask me, to get you head round the following functions.
http://php.net/set_locale
http://php.net/time
http://php.net/date
http://php.net/mktime
more generally, check out this section of the manual (and let it
be known, dates are tricky buggers ... they can bite):
http://php.net/manual/en/book.datetime.php
additionally, check out the UNIX_TIMESTAMP() function in MySQL, which
will give you a unix timestamp (of all things!) that you can use to
generate formatted date strings easily in php using date()
This is my date select in the form:
echo '<select name="day">';
for ($day = 1; $day <= 31; $day++) {
echo "<option value=\"$day\">$day</option>\n";
}
echo '</select>';
echo '<select name="year">';
$year = 2008;
while ($year <= 2020) {
echo "<option value=\"$year\">$year</option>\n";
$year++;
}
echo '</select>';
This is how it submits to mysql:
Now, when I submit it to mysql, it's all in mm-dd-yyyy format.
When I submit it to an e-mail, I'd like it to me Month-dd-yyyy. How
could I do this?
Would it be easier to pull the date from mysql and break it down
somehow? And if so how would I do that?
