[PHP] Re: Time/date function MYSQL-UNIX
Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Is there a built in PHP function which will convert a MySQL type date (DDMM or whatever) into a unix timestamp so it can be used with the other PHP time and date functions? I'm currently using substr() to extract bits of the date so it displays as DD / MM / but it's annoying! SELECT id, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(mydate) AS mydatestamp FROM mytable then $row['mydatestamp'] is your unix timestamp. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Re: Time/date function MYSQL-UNIX
OK cheers. I'll have a try. I saw UNIX_TIMESTAMP() in the MySQL docs but I didn't quite understand it (PHP is MUCH easier for me!) Thanks for the example too Peter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
