Using PHP 5.3 and given the string Sat, 20 Oct 2012 05:00:00 GMT
:
print $start;
$start = strtotime($start);
var_dump($start);
$hour = date('H:i A', $start);
die($hour);
That snippet of code in my program returns this:
Sat, 20 Oct 2012 05:00:00 GMT
int(1350709200)
00:00 AM
The var_dump
is correct, but the date returns a bad answer.
Note, also, that changing that snippet to read:
print $start;
$start = strtotime($start);
die($start);
$hour = date('H:i A', $start);
die($hour);
returns:
Sat, 20 Oct 2012 05:00:00 GMT
The first die returns an empty string, a null, which I can only assume is actually a boolean FALSE.
So I'm actually having two different problems, here. The same answer returns two different things depending on if I var_dump
or die, and the second is that date appears to be receiving the FALSE answer, not the var_dump
answer.
Help?
