Answer 1

date('M', strtotime( $timestamp ));

Swap M with any of the following:

• F — A full textual representation of a month, such as January or March. (January through December)
• m — Numeric representation of a month, with leading zeros (01 through 12)
• M — A short textual representation of a month, three letters (Jan through Dec)
• n — Numeric representation of a month, without leading zeros (1 through 12)
• t — Number of days in the given month (28 through 31)
