Convert a date format in PHP

How to change date format in PHP?

 

PHP provides strtotime() and date() functions for converting date-time format. We convert the date format from one format to another. For example - we have stored the date in a variable in MM-DD-YYYY format, and we want to convert it to DD-MM-YYYY format.

We can achieve this conversion using strtotime() and date() functions. These are built-in functions of PHP. strtotime() first converts the date to seconds, and then the date() function is used to reconstruct the date in any format. Below are some examples for converting date format.

 

 

 

The date_format() function returns a date formatted according to the specified format.

Note: This function does not use locales (all output is in English).

Tip: Also look at the date() function, which formats a local date/time.

 

 

<?php 

$originalDate = "2010-03-21";

$newDate = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($originalDate));

 ?>
