If DateTime Object Is Null

Question

I am returning some search results after form submit. All is working fine, until I get to a field that is SMALLDATETIME and allows NULL. At least one of the returned rows ha

Answer 1

Try this,

".date_format(new DateTime( $search_results_option->HardwareAssetLastUpdateTime ),"d/m/Y H:i")."
".$search_results_option->HardwareAssetLastUpdatedByName."
".date_format(new DateTime( $search_results_option->HardwareAssetLastDiscoveryScanDate ),"d/m/Y H:i")."";

date_format() need the date to be in DateTime format when supplied, you are passing a string.

The other thing may be that $search_results_option is empty

For NULL values:

( $search_results_option->HardwareAssetLastDiscoveryScanDate != null ? date_format(new DateTime( $search_results_option->HardwareAssetLastDiscoveryScanDate ),"d/m/Y H:i") : '' )

This will check for a null value, if it is not null it will display the formatted datetime, els eit will display nothing
