I have a string mm-dd-yyyy which i get from a form, which i want to store it in the database of the data-type DATE (yyyy-mm-dd).
How do i format the string and save it in the database ?
$new_format = date("Y-m-d", strtotime('04-28-2012'));
or
$date = new DateTime('04-28-2012');
$new_format = $date->format('Y-m-d');
or in PHP 5.5+
$new_format = (new DateTime('04-28-2012'))->format('Y-m-d');
Try
$date = DateTime::createFromFormat("m-d-Y", '02-15-2012');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') , "\n";
Output
2012-02-15 23:54:52

I have to convert this string date 2016-09-26 00:00:00.000 to the yyyy-mm-dd format without other characters.
Can you help me, please?
You can just use the DateTime class along with the format() method:
$d = new DateTime('2016-09-26 00:00:00.000');
echo $d->format('Y-m-d');
Try this:
$datetime = '2016-09-26 00:00:00.000';
$date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('2016-09-26 00:00:00.000'));
you will get the only date part in 'yyyy-mm-dd' format.
$test = strtotime('2016-09-26 00:00:00.000');
$test1 = date('Y-m-d h:i', $test);
$array1 = explode(' ', $var);
$date_temp = $array1[0];

I have some strings that will be different dates and times. Each one will be different and I'm looking to format them to my liking.
For Example:
2016-04-15 14:20:00
I would like to be able to take this string and use PHP's Date function to format it to my liking.
For Example:
04/15 2:20pm
So would I take the string and convert it to a timestamp first? If so how do I go about doing that?
You can return a new DateTime object formatted according to the specified format by using this function. Then you can format it as you like.
<?php
$testDate = '15-Feb-2009 11:00:34';
$date = DateTime::createFromFormat('j-M-Y H:i:s', $testDate);
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');
?>
try this ..
<?php
$time = strtotime('2016-04-15 14:20:00');
echo date('m/d g:ia', $time);
?>
Second Way
<?php
$format = 'Y-m-d H:i:s';
$date = DateTime::createFromFormat($format, '2016-04-15 14:20:00');
echo $date->format('m/d g:ia');
?>

Is it possible extract hour value from a date string like below
20151211091805 +0000
expected output-
09:18:05 (this should also be string)
Try this:
$t = "20151211091805";
echo date('H:i:s',strtotime($t));
Use PHP's date function.
echo date("H:i:s", strtotime("20151211091805"));
Another way using DateTime class.
$dateTime = new DateTime("20151211091805");
echo $dateTime->format('H:i:s');
Try this..
<?php
$timestamp = 20151211091805;
$date = new DateTime("$ts");
echo date_format($date, 'H:i:s');
?>

I would like to convert 30.10.2014 15\:25\:24 to 30/Oct/2014 15:25:24. I tried it like this...
$s = '30.10.2014 15\:25\:24';
$date = strtotime($s);
echo date('d/M/Y H:i:s', $date);
... but my result is 01.Jan.1970 01:00:00
Its because strtotime returned FALSE , code shown below
$s = '30.10.2014 15\:25\:24'; //invalid format
$date = strtotime($s);
if($date===FALSE) //if strtotime failed
{
echo "strtotime failed";
}

How to convert a string, for instance
$datestring = '28.08.14 10.42';
To a new format like date("YmdHis.u")
Thank you
Use date function. There is no such format as what you have required but the what I think you want to achieve is this.
DEMO
<?php
$datestring = '28.08.14 10.42';
$date = date("Y-m-d H:i:s:u", strtotime($datestring));
echo $date; //outputs 2014-08-28 10:42:00:000000
?>
Try this
$datestring = '28.08.14 10.42';
echo date("YmdHis.u",strtotime($datestring));
