Date Format Function Change Date Format In PHP

Many People have problem in converting between various date formats in PHP.So I have discussed some basic solutions to some common date related problems in this post.

Converting Date Format From dd-mm-yyyy to yyyy-mm-dd

echo date("Y-m-d",strtotime($time));

Converting Date Format From yyyy-mm-dd to dd-mm-yyyy

$new_date = date(d-m-Y, strtotime(your date variable));

Changing Date Format From Full Month Name

date("Y-m-d",strtotime("Your Date Variable"));

 For Example,

date("Y-m-d",strtotime("15 November, 2012"));

 Returns 2012-11-15.
