[PHP] Adding zeros to date

[Daniel Alsén]

Hi,

is there a easier way to add zeros to date than the script below? (ie to get
20011005 instead of 2001105). I wrote a long string replace. But it seems
kind of unecessary to me. Is it?


$date_time_array = getdate (time());
$date = $date_time_array[ "mday"];
$month = $date_time_array[ "mon"];
$year = $date_time_array[ "year"];


if ($month < 10) {
$month = str_replace("1", "01", $month);
$month = str_replace("2", "02", $month);
$month = str_replace("3", "03", $month);
$month = str_replace("4", "04", $month);
$month = str_replace("5", "05", $month);
$month = str_replace("6", "06", $month);
$month = str_replace("7", "07", $month);
$month = str_replace("8", "08", $month);
$month = str_replace("9", "09", $month);
}

if ($date < 10) {
$date = str_replace("1", "01", $date);
$date = str_replace("2", "02", $date);
$date = str_replace("3", "03", $date);
$date = str_replace("4", "04", $date);
$date = str_replace("5", "05", $date);
$date = str_replace("6", "06", $date);
$date = str_replace("7", "07", $date);
$date = str_replace("8", "08", $date);
$date = str_replace("9", "09", $date);
}

$datemonth = $year . $month . $date;

echo $datemonth;
