Convert getdate() to YYYY/MM/DD?

[Lagon666]

Is any solution to convert "1055901520" to yyyy/mm/dd:

$date = getdate();
print $date[0]; // return 1055901520

Look here.

You will see that [0] is your timestamp (seconds since unix epoch).

// To get the year (yyyy) it's
echo $date['year'];
// Month (mm) is:
echo $date['mon'];
// Day (dd) is:
echo $date['mday'];

However, you should really look at the date() function as this is probably what you are after. To do your request would be:

$today = date("Y/m/d");
echo $today;

With the date() function you can put in a second parameter for inital timestamp if that's what you want. If you do not put an initial timestamp, it takes the current one. time() will get you a current timestamp.

I have tried to tell you other ways to solve your problem, but you can use this if that's all you want:

$date = date("Y/m/d",getdate());
print $date;

@TheServant
If you read the date() documentation you will see the first parameter is output format ("Y/m/d") and the second is your time stamp (1055901520 or getdate() or blank for current)...
