nice_date()

+ +

This function can take a number poorly-formed date formats and convert them into something useful. It also accepts well-formed dates.

+

The fuction will return a Unix timestamp by default. You can, optionally, pass a format string (the same type as the PHP date function accepts) as the second parameter. Example:

+ +$bad_time = 199605
+
+// Should Produce: 1996-05-01
+$better_time = nice_date($bad_time,'Y-m-d');
+
+$bad_time = 9-11-2001
+// Should Produce: 2001-09-11
+$better_time = nice_date($human,'Y-m-d'); +
