php date function

[dentnick]

Hi,
I am new to all this.
I try to run a website which uses the php date function to display date and time.
The problem is that i am from Greece.
The only problem i have is with the months display.
It shows Jan Feb etc.
I would like to see them in Greek or if this is diffidcult at least to see months in numeric fromat from 1 to 12.
I attach here the functions_date. php in text format in case someone can help.

Regards,

Nick

You should have everything you need in the manual:

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

If you want greek months, then just create a small 12 item associative array with the month number as the key and the greek month as the value.

$greekMonths = array('Ianouarios','Fevrouarios','Martios','Aprilios','Maios','Iounios','Ioulios','Avgoustos','Septemvrios','Oktovrios','Noemvrios','Dekemvrios');

$greekDate = date('d') . ' ' . $greekMonths[intval(date('m'))-1] . ' ' . date('Y'); 
echo $greekDate;

Which as of this posting displays: 19 Ianouarios 2010

Something like that should work for you,
