    <p>I'm using a <a href="http://www.eyecon.ro/bootstrap-datepicker/" rel="nofollow">jQuery datepicker</a> where obviously the date format doesn't match php format.</p> <p>How could I convert the datepicker format over to php format so that I can output <code>date( $format )</code> in the same convention defined in the datepicker format. So say I put the format like <code>dd/mm/yyyy</code>, how could I convert that to <code>m/d/o</code> in php? Or if I specified it as <code>d-m-yy</code>, how to convert that to <code>n-j-y</code>?</p> <p>Basically, wondering how I could convert the allowed date picker formats, regardless of what the letters or the separators are to php.</p> <p>I've tried using preg_replace, but the issue there is with single and double same letters. <code>dd</code> becomes <code>nn</code>, since it's trying to replace <code>d</code> twice. Could something with regex be used maybe? I'm kind of lost on how the logic to convert would be done.</p> <p><strong>Edit</strong>: My Apologies for a oversight in the details. The js format is literally like <code>dd/mm/yyyy</code>, not the actual date output. What it is, in the CMS, the user defines the format the datepicker uses (dd/mm/yyyy or any other format sequence and separators the datepicker has). The PHP is used to output the current date using that defined format and sequence. I would love to have them define a PHP format and then convert that to the js format. But the powers that be always want things the way they want them - <em>sigh</em>).</p> <p><strong>Edit#2</strong> Here's a working script up on Codepad, which shows the issue with letters in the format being treated individually and doubled up. <code>mm</code> becomes <code>nn</code> instead of just being <code>m</code>. The rest of the characters are being individualized as well.</p> <p><a href="http://codepad.org/lBgqVgbs" rel="nofollow">http://codepad.org/lBgqVgbs</a></p>

    1. COI just normally user `strtotime()` to convert the output from Jquery's datepicker to a timestamp then you can use the `date()` to convert it into whatever format you want.

    2. COI failed to mention that the js date format is literally like dd/mm/yyyy, not the actual date output itself. Apologies for that oversight.
