PHP date function .
Welcome to PHP programming,
In PHP, date() function is used to format a time or a date.
The PHP date() function
The date() function formats a timestamp to a more readable date and time.
Syntax:
date(format,timestamp)
Format - required, specifies the format of the timestamp.
Timestamp - optional, specifies a timestamp.
Default is the current date and time as a timestamp.
What is a Timestamp?
A timestamp is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 at 00:00:00 GMT. This is also known
as the Unix Timestamp.
Format the date
The first parameter in the date() function specifies how to format the date time. It uses letters
to represent date and time formats. Here are some of the letters that can be used.
1) d - The day of the month(01-31)
2) m - The current month, as a number(01-12)
3) y - The current year in 2 digits
4) D - The day of the week
5) M - The current month, with a first 3 letters of the month
6) Y - The current year in four digits
7) h - The current time in hours
8) i - The current time in minutes
9) s - The current time in seconds
10) a - specifies am and pm
Let us write a PHP code using date function
Save it in our server i.e. xampp/htdocs
Run the code using the url http://localhost/date1.php
Adding a Timestamp
The second parameter in the date() function specifies a timestamp. This parameter is optional. If
you do not supply a timestamp, the current time will be used.
Let us use the mktime9) function to create a timestamp for tomorrow.
The mktime() function returns the Unix timestamp for a specified date.
Syntax:
mktime(hour,minute,second, month, day, year, is_dst)
Let us write a simple PHP code using mktime() function to create a timestamp for tomorrow.
Save it in our server i.e., xampp/htdocs
run the code using the url http://localhost/date2.php
This is how date functions works in PHP script.
