hello tamimmakki,

well its very simple to do that.. fetch the datetime from mysql, change it to string and then use date function to display the way you want.. Though, i would advice you to store date & time into VARCHAR format in mysql, so u can skip the first step.. well a working example goes in here..

[PHP]
<?php

//make connection & stuff and fetch data
$fetch=date('g: m:i');
$str=strtotime( $fetch);
echo date('H:M',$str );
?>
[/PHP]

cheers !!
