php date functions with examples
Example: 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.
