Question

I am hosting a php application on Windows server 2008 and using SQL Server 2008. I am having issues with inserting dd/mm/yyyy date strings in to the database.

How can I manually convert my dd/mm/yyyy string into the MS SQL Server date format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS within PHP code?

Answer 1

$date = strtotime('11/01/2012');

$new_date = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $date);
