I want to convert a date field(format: dd-mm-yyyy) to db date format. If input date format is equal to dd-mm-yyyy format then convert date to yyyy-mm-dd format else return false.
function convertToDbDate($date) {
if($date !="") {
$result= date('Y-m-d', strtotime(str_replace('/', '-', $date)));
if($result) {
return $result;
}
return false;
}
}
$date = date_create_from_format('m-d-Y', '12-31-2016');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');
