php date from unix timestamp

Question

I have a unix timestapm in my database and i want it to be formated like this:

Y-m-dTH:i:s

T is just a symbol between date and time. If I convert it like this:

$t_date=date("Y-m-dTH:i:s", $row['date']);

I get something like this: 2012-03-05UTC06:06:49. The problem is that T is one of the parameters for formating date.

If you're using PHP 5+, you can just use date("c") to get an ISO8601-format date (e.g. 2004-02-12T15:19:21+00:00).
