Adobe has some date parsing methods in the as3corelib library -- http://code.google.com/p/as3corelib/
I suppose it depends on the format your storing the date, the way I've been handling it is using as3 to parse the date string that AMF returns. Not sure if this is the best way, I'd be open to a better one! Hope that helps, I can attempt to help more if it doesn't. I've been using AMFPHP for awhile now... would be nice to make any contacts that use it! ----- Original Message ----- From: Nik Derewianka To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2008 6:00 AM Subject: [flexcoders] AMFPHP and date/datetime data from MySQL Hi All, Could anyone enlighten me as to how i should send and retrieve date and datetime data for inserting into MySQL via amfphp (1.9) with value objects ? If i edit the data directly in MySQL and then retrieve a vo with a Date datatype i get the following message: TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert "1970-01-01" to Date. So, I need to format the date in someway so that flex can deserialize it properly. Any insight would be greatly appreciated (am coming from .net land so new to both PHP and as3).
