用PHP格式化工作日，日月，年格式的日期？ [关闭]

Question

How do I format a date in the format such as weekday, day month, year for example Friday, 18th October 2013? I have tried using strotime() and the echoing using date() function but can't achieve this format because weekday is not being returned properly.

Answer 1

This works correctly:

// Use string to time to get the date as a unix timestamp
$myTime = strtotime("Friday, 18th  October 2013");

// Use that timestamp to reform it into a date, in which ever format you want orrding to the date() documentation.
$newTime = date('l, jS F Y', $myTime);

// Show the date in the format
echo $newTime;
