Question

How can we convert Wed Jun 09 2010 which is returns from a javascript function and get in a php script.I need to convert this date format to 2010-06-09.Thanks

Answer 1

Or with DateTime:

$date = new DateTime('Wed Jun 09 2010');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');

The date format you can input to strtotime(), DateTime and date_create() are explained in the PHP manual. If you need more control over the input format and have PHP5.3, you can use:

$date = DateTime::createFromFormat('D M m Y', 'Wed Jun 09 2010');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');
