I have a script which pulls a date(date default NULL) and a time (time default NULL) from a MySQL database, now I would like to display that date and time in a 'pretty' format.
I've been able to show the date nicely with the help of this:
$ntime=strtotime($row['date'] $row['time']); $ndate=date('D d F Y H:i',$ntime);
This shows the date in a 'nice' format (2004-05-10 20:40:00 is shown as Mon 10 May 2004 00:00), however, it shows the time as 00:00 for all of the games no matter what the time is. How do I get it to show the date as 20:40 or 20h40 or 8:40 PM?
If I change the lines to this: $ntime=strtotime("$row[date] $row[time] GMT"); $ndate=date('D d F Y H:i',$ntime); the only difference is that it now shows Mon 10 May 2004 02:00 (probably because we are 2 hours ahead of GMT)
Any ideas please?
Thanks

Well, a solution could easily be arranged to use both fields, but really, the best thing to do is to just use a DATETIME field in MySQL instead of using both DATE and TIME fields. That will save you a lot of headaches now and in the future.
