Hi guys.
I don't understand why ma date is wrong:
I use for my varaible:
$date = date('Y-m-d',strtotime($this->input->post('my_date')
echo $date gives me:
Y-d-m !!! but I'm waiting Y-m-d....
A french Guy.

What is the value of $this->input->post(‘my_date’); is it posted from form?
Post your code.

the view:
Code:
...
<td>
<?php if(isset($r->date_age) AND $r->date_age!= "0000-00-00" ): echo date('d/m/Y',strtotime($r->date_age));endif; ?>
</td>the controller:
Code:
...
$this->form_validation->set_rules('date_age','Date de naissance','trim|required|xss_clean');
if ($this->form_validation->run())
{
$data = array (
...
'date_age' => date('Y-m-d',strtotime($this->input->post('date_age'))),
...I need to put date('m/d/Y') to have a real date with this format d/m/Y (for the screen)...???
I have made little test function but i don't how I can make it in use in the set->rules line.
Code:
/* Date au format 0000-00-00 */
function toDateMysql($date){
if (preg_match("#(\d{2})-(\d{2})-(\d{4})#",$date)) {
return preg_replace("#(\d{2})-(\d{2})-(\d{4})#","$3-$2-$1", $date);
} else {
return false;
}
}
/* Date au format 00/00/0000 */
function toDateFr($date){
if (preg_match("#(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d{2})#",$date)) {
return preg_replace("#(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d{2})#","$3-$2-$1", $date);
} else {
return false;
}Thanks for helping me.

Doesn't the format string have to be in double quotes?

No.
I'm guessing what's happening here is that you're inputting the date as dd/mm/yyyy, and strtotime() thinks the date is in "american" mm/dd/yyyy format, as it's wont to do.
see: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php#100144
I would force - rather than /, replace the characters before converting format, or use something like jquery datepicker

Ok.
I'm working on it...
THKS.
Ok great ! I undrestand :
Quote:Forward slash (/) signifies American M/D/Y formatting, a dash (-) signifies European D-M-Y

I'm going to try with jquery datepicker, but...
How can I make this works (for example and if I need to do this) ?
...
$this->form_validation->set_rules('date_age','Date de naissance','trim|test_my_date|required|xss_clean');
Where I have to put my code (function test_my_date() in ?
A new helper that I have to include in /application/helpers ?

Ok. That's done.
It works fine with "-" rather than "/", with or whithout date picker.
Thanks.
