From: Operating system: N/A PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Date/time related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:abbreviate "Y-m-d H:i:s" to Q
Description: ------------ --- >From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.date --- Is there any chance the common Y-m-d H:i:s can be summarized as "Q" for the common MySQL datetime format. I have written this sequence hundreds of times (You're the man now dog, Hamlet in space?) Seeing as MySQL and PHP are so commonly tied together I think this could be a very useful shortcut to add. http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=Y-m-d+H%3Ai%3As over 5.000 related issues https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Y-m-d+H%3Ai%3As%22 over 1.7 million results Easier and quicker to memorize.
