Append Date to Filename

Chan · #1 (**permalink**) 08-03-2006, 03:52 PM

How can I append the date/time to a filename? For instance, if I have:

PHP Code:


			
$filename = "/results-";

but would like it to be results-8-03-2006-3-52

How could I do that?

Here you go:

PHP Code:


			
// Get our date

$date = date('d-m-y-h-i');



// Set a filename

$filename="/results-" . $date;

You can change the format of the date() function as well chan. Check out php.net and search for the date function.
