Getting time and date from timestamp with php

I am trying to convert this date format:

09/14/2012 10:11

into this other standard timestamp format:

2012-09-14 09:44:54

What is the most efficient way of doing it?

Answer 1

You can use DateTime object

$date = DateTime($myDate);

or your custom input format with createFromFormat

$date = DateTime::createFromFormat('d/m/y H:i:s', $myDate);

format Will make your output

$result = $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
