If your date was yyyy-mm-dd, you could do this: <? $date = '2002-03-18'; echo date('m', strtotime($date)); ?> But, because yours isn't: <? $date = '2002-03-18'; list($y,$d,$m) = explode('-',$date); echo date('m', strtotime("{$y}-{$m}-{$d}")); ?> Justin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
