Change Dates

[Nightsoft]

How do I chage a Date value from yyyy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yyyy?
I looked at a function called date_format but I don't seem to get the function...

The date must be formatted within the php code, and not in the SQL Query.

Anyone have some help on the date_format so that it'll work after my attention.?

thnx

try this:


// $thedate is the date in format yyyy-mm-dd
// $newdate is reformated date to dd-mm-yyy

list ($year,$month,$day) = split("-",$thedate,3);
$newdate = "$day-$month-$year";
