Hey everyone,
Sorry if these files seem familar. I have an issue with a certain date that won't change along with the rest. For example: "Sun., Sep 16th, 2012 6: 26 PM" that's the way the code is supposed to read but there is one section that won't change and I can't seem to figure out what's wrong. I've looked and looked over my code files and can't figure it out. Help! and Thanks in advance!
///this is the line of code where the error starts.////
<p>By <?php echo $post['user']; ?> on <?php echo $post['date']; ?>
///Here is the file in PHP with sql that determines the date.////
<?php
//checks if the given post id is in the table
function valid_pid($pid) {
$pid = (int)$pid;
$total = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(`post_id`) FROM `posts` WHERE `post_id` = {$pid}");
$total = mysql_result($total, 0);
if ($total != 1) {
return false;
}else{
return true;
}
}
//gets a summary of all blog posts
function get_posts() {
$sql = "SELECT
