I have a program that gererates data and with that data it includes the date in the format
20111212
(That would be today's date [12-12-2011]). Is there a way to explode that into the three segments like
2011
12
12
so I can put a -
between those numbers?
My end aim is to have the date in the form DD-MM-YYYY
.
If your format alway YYYYMMDD then first take 4 digits as year, then take 2 digits as month and last take 2 digits as date. see substring function for php in google.
