Question

I’m retrieving only dates from database from a DATETIME column named Date.

Using DATE(Date) I get just the date in this order: 2012-02-19

SELECT DATE(Date)

echo $row['Day'];

How can I echo the date, day first, then month and last year. (As it’s commonly ordered in Spanish)

Answer 1

Convert the date from the SQL into a PHP date and then use the date() function:

echo date("d-m-Y",strtotime($row['Day']));
