php date format full month name code example
Example 1: php get day from date
$timestamp = strtotime('2009-10-22');
$day = date('D', $timestamp);
var_dump($day);
Example 2: date in php
FYI: there's a list of constants with predefined formats on the DateTime object, for example instead of outputting ISO 8601 dates with:
<?php
echo date('c');
?>
or
<?php
echo date('Y-m-d\TH:i:sO');
?>
You can use
<?php
echo date(DateTime::ISO8601);
?>
instead, which is much easier to read.
Example 3: php date
<?php
date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
echo date("l");
echo date('l jS \of F Y h:i:s A');
echo "July 1, 2000 is on a " . date("l", mktime(0, 0, 0, 7, 1, 2000));
echo date(DATE_RFC2822);
echo date(DATE_ATOM, mktime(0, 0, 0, 7, 1, 2000));
?>
