Did you even read the replies? Why are you going to do a bunch of string manipulation, mktime, and date calls in PHP when you can just use DATE_FORMAT() in your query and get exactly what you want without any additional work by PHP? Take a little time and Read Chapter 6 of the MySQL manual. It will save you a ton of work later on... ---John Holmes... > -R > > "Ragnar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > > I have a column in a mysql table with a timestamp.
