Question

I’m getting a status message using FQL and the Facebook Graph API.

I’m not sure about the time format returned by the API.

I receive it like this:

 [time] => 1319588970

I want to convert it to something like:

 27-02-2012

How do I convert that value to human readable time?

Answer 1

That is a UNIX timestamp set in GMT-0. To convert it, do something like this:

$time = YOUR_TIMESTAMP_VAR;
$date = date('d-m-Y', $time);
