Date-format a local time/date

Description: string date (string $ format [, int $ timestamp])

Returns the string generated by the integer timestamp according to the given format string. If no timestamp is provided, the current local time is used. In other words, timestamp is optional and the default value is time ().

Tip

Several Useful Constants from PHP 5.1.1 can be used as standard date/time formats to specify the format parameter.

Tip

Since PHP 5.1, the timestamp at the TIME when the REQUEST is initiated is saved in $ _ SERVER ['request _ time.

Note:

A valid timestamp typically ranges from 20:45:54, January 1, December 13, 1901 to 03:14:07, January 1, January 19, 2038, Greenwich Mean Time. (The value range is the minimum and maximum values of 32-bit signed integers ). However, before PHP 5.1, this range was limited in some systems (such as Windows) from January 1-20, 1970 to January 19.

Note:

To convert the time expressed by a string to a timestamp, use strtotime (). In addition, some functions in some databases convert their time formats to timestamps (for example, MySQL's» UNIX_TIMESTAMP function ).
