Hello, am working with the date function in a php file, however the text "at" is not being rendered properly:
Initial code:
"Online reservation form submitted on " . date ("d/m/y \at\ H:i") . "\n\n" .
Rendered value:
Online reservation form submitted on 29/09/12 a30 11:52
Where instead of "at" it is becoming "a30". How to fix this?

aandtare format characters in the date function. If you want to use them as text (literally) you must escape each of them.
Jump to PostSorry, use:
date ('d/m/y \a\t H:i')(single quotes)
Backslash should be before the t
date ("d/m/y \a\t H:i")
I tried that but it instead worked as a "tab" space added to the resulting text
a and t are format characters in the date function. If you want to use them as text (literally) you must escape each of them.
Sorry, use: date ('d/m/y \a\t H:i') (single quotes)
date ('d/m/y \a\t H:i');
OR
date ('d/m/y').' at '.date('H:i');
thanks
