I get php output function from another function and it always returns date in this-like format:
2012-05-24 09:05:20
So my question is how can i get from variable $p_re["last_login"] format I need? I need to have it like
24.5.2012 09:05:20
Thank you all I did not find it in any section there are some - changing right from database but i need to "rewrite" format from already output variable. Thank you.
Try This code just before displaying date on page
$p_re["last_login"] = date('d.m.Y H:i:s', strtotime($p_re["last_login"]));
More info
'd.m.Y' will return 24.05.2012
'd.n.Y' will return 24.5.2012
j.n.Y gives you 4.7.2012 instead of 04.07.2012, just in case you don't want leading zeros for days neither.j. F Y shows the month name. To have it in your language, you need to set locale info. For example, to have it in Dutch, you need to call setlocale (LC_TIME, 'nl_NL');.General answer for custom time formats (needs adjustments):
$output = "2012-05-24 09:05:20";
$converted = date("d.m.Y H:i:s", mktime(substr($output,11,2), substr($output,14,2), substr($output,17,2), substr($output,5,2), substr($output,8,2), substr($output,0,4)));
Since your output is standard MySQL compound format, you may use
$output = "2012-05-24 09:05:20";
$converted = date("d.m.Y H:i:s", strtotime($output));
Instead of d.m.Y you can use d.n.Y if you want 24.5.2012 and not 24.05.2012 (Note the leading zero in month).
A more customisable approach is to use the DateTime object.
Start with making a DateTime object withDateTime::createFromFormat and then output that with DateTime::format.
$date_str = '2012-05-24 09:05:20';
You can use below statement to format your date according to your desire.
$formatted_date = date('Y.m.d H:i:s', strtotime($date_str))
