title: PHP to MySQL date formatting issue
body: <p>I have a PHP/MySQL date formatting problem. Here, i create the date variables:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$checkDate = date("d/m/y H:i", time());
  $datestrto = strtotime($checkDate); 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then i insert it to a mysql table with the column Datatype of bigint.</p>
  
  <p>When i then, later on, when i need to echo the date, i use this code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>echo '&lt;td&gt;'.date("d/m/y H:i",$row['f_uploaded_date']).'&lt;/td&gt;';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But istead of echo'ing the date in the format <code>D/M/Y H:i</code>, it echo'es the date in the format of <code>m/d/y H:i</code>.
  Can anyone explain why this is happening, and how to fix it?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance,
  Adam</p>
