Here is unix timestamp of today
1306702800
How to convert it to look like 30-05-2011 using php ?
You can use the date function to convert (and arbitrarily re-format) timestamps as such:
echo date('d-m-Y', 1306702800);
Additionally, you can get the current timestamp via the time function, so you could output the current date via: echo date('d-m-Y', time());.
Use PHP's date functions: http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
See date
echo date('d-m-Y', '%your-time-stamp%');

Convert one date format into another in PHP

I have a Date/time value as such;
2014-01-07T16:19:08Z
I wish to convert it to the format below using PHP
2015-03-21 02:12:01
I know I could use string replace twice over to remove the T and Z characters but doesn't seem right..
use strtotime() with date()
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime('2014-01-07T16:19:08Z'));
The date_format() function returns a date formatted according to the specified format.
$date=date_create("2014-01-07T16:19:08Z");
echo date_format($date,"Y-m-d H:i:s");
One more way is there
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime('2014-01-07T16:19:08Z'));
Update
The date_create() function returns a new DateTime object.
Reference
<?php
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime('2014-01-07T16:19:08Z'));
?>

I am taking the input in M-d-Y format from calender but I want to convert it into Y-m-d when it store in the database. What method can I use?
You can try this. strtotime is your friend.
echo date("Y-m-d", strtotime('Dec-02-2014'));
or mysql DATE_FORMAT function, but mysql stores dates in yyyy-mm-dd format.
I think it better to do it in Mysql itself. When we have so many function. Like below:
SELECT STR_TO_DATE('Jan-31-2014', '%b-%d-%Y');
You can use it for insert query like below:
Insert into tableName `date` = STR_TO_DATE(InputVal, '%b-%d-%Y');
For more info:http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/date-and-time-functions.html#function_str-to-date
Try this:
$date="05-25-2014";
print(date("y-m-d",strtotime($date)));
use the date() and strtotime() like:
$var = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($timestring))

Make not that there is a difference between using forward slash / and hyphen - in the strtotime function. to quote from php.net

I am tring to make the google news sitemap by php script from mysql.(all the date save as timestamp in +08:00)
But how to converting date to YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ssTZD?
For example 1338048000 => 2012-05-26T09:00:00+08:00
echo date("Y-m-d T h:i:s",'1338048000').'+08:00';//2012-05-26 PDT 09:00:00+08:00
Not the result what I need. And how to? Thanks.
How about this?
echo date("c",'1338048000');
I'd say:
gmdate('Y-m-d\TH:i:s\Z', '1338048000');
The T means something, and needs to be escaped. Or, since PHP5, the ISO8601 date format is natively supported with the c character.
Additionally, using gmdate instead of date removes the need to worry about timezones.
echo date("c", "1338048000").'+08:00';

Formatting a timestamp
I require a php function that returns the date in the format in the same format as mySQL function CURRENT_TIMESTAMP (i.e like this--> 2011-08-10 17:17:23).
Wondering if there's anything available
echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s");
will do the job.
You can use the date() function for this.
// example result 2010-08-12 22:30:45
$mysqlTime = date ("Y-m-d H:i:s");
Also if you want to get a MySQL date as a timestamp for use in php functions you can use MySQL's UNIX_TIMESTAMP function
