Convert to date format dd/mm/yyyy

Question

I have the following date: 2010-04-19 18:31:27. I would like to convert this date to the dd/mm/yyyy format.

Answer 1

If your date is in the format of a string use the explode function

    array explode ( string $delimiter , string $string [, int $limit ] )
//In the case of your code

$length = strrpos($oldDate," ");
$newDate = explode( "-" , substr($oldDate,$length));
$output = $newDate[2]."/".$newDate[1]."/".$newDate[0];

Hope the above works now
