well, I"ve got a time format of the type: 2011-02-16T01:25:50+04:00
I want to strip the +04:00 from the end of the string. How to do it?
I am converting a timestamp from mysql to ISO 8601 format using this function:
$timeagotime = date('c',strtotime($row['created_at']));
where $timeagotime contains the value: 2011-02-16T01:25:50+04:00
Refer to the documentation for php's date function: http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
You need to use a different format string. For instance,
date('Y-m-d',strtotime($row['created_at']));
Givens you "2011-02-16". There are a number of format strings... check out the doc.
You could use substr() to remove it, or just generate a date without it in the first place, though you couldn't use the 'c' formatting option, since that'd just add the timezone on again.
$timeagotime = substr($timeagotime, 0, 19)
$timeagotime = date('Y-m-dTG:i:s', strtotime(...));
If you absolutely don't need the end then you can use the following. Otherwise I'd suggest using a different way to generate your date from the table. PHP Date
$timeagotime = substr(date('c',strtotime($row['created_at'])), 0, 19);
