what is the difference between a unix timestamp and php date anyway?
i was not aware that php has a date type? (http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.php)

he diffrence is that for example

yes, you do have "ready made function" .. it's called almost any of the time related functions. date(), strftime(), etc.. all can take a timestamp argument.

I don't understand what you mean. So you have a unix timestamp... which PHP handles nicely with it's date() function. And you want to get what?

Code: Select all

date("d/m/Y G:i:s", $timestamp);
Am I being dumb or is that what you mean?

EDIT | Oops... I see my point was already made by feyd. Took me 10 mins to write that answer cos I keep getting jobs to do :-(

mmmmmmmmmm i see know
