How to get GMT date in yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss in PHP

Question

I want to get the current date in yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss format.

I have tried:

gmdate('yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss \\G\\M\\T', time());

Its returning a wierd date:

13131313-1111-2323 0707:1111:3131

Answer 1

You don't have to repeat those format identifiers . For yyyy you just need to have Y , etc.

gmdate('Y-m-d h:i:s \G\M\T', time());

In fact you don't even need to give it a default time if you want current time

gmdate('Y-m-d h:i:s \G\M\T');  // This is fine for your purpose

Answer 3

You had selected the time format wrong

<?php 
date_default_timezone_set('GMT');

echo date("Y-m-d,h:m:s");
?>

Answer 4

使用以下日期函数以MySQL格式获取当前时间/（如有要求提供的问题）

echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s", time());

Answer 5

You are repeating the y,m,d .

Instead of

gmdate('yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss \G\M\T', time());  

You should use it like

gmdate('Y-m-d h:m:s \G\M\T', time());

Answer 6

gmdate() is doing exactly what you asked for.
