Re: EASY!!! Timestamp conversion & php

CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED

Thanks! That worked perfectly... I'll be sure to brush up on that chapter :)

FYI, I work for the US Army as a contractor and they require that I classify
each email I send out.... :)

I couldn't help but answer an email that starts:

CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED

What you need to do is take a look at the to_char function in Chapter 4.7 of
the PostgreSQL User's Guide.

For example if you wanted to get the current timestamp in the format you
specified you would need to do something like:

SELECT to_char(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, 'FMMonth FMDD, YYYY HH24:MI');
