From what I understand, the best way to deal with dates in the Zend Framework is to select them as a Unix timestamp from the database. Quick Creation of Dates from Database Date Values // SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(my_datetime_column) FROM my_table $date = new Zend_Date($unixtimestamp, Zend_Date::TIMESTAMP); I think it's a pain that there...
Frankly, I'm flummoxed. Can anyone tell me why I would get a failure message with this code? $date = Zend_Date::now(); $date = $date->getIso(); if(Zend_Date::isDate($date, Zend_Date::ISO_8601)) { print('success'); } else { print('failure'); } exit; It also fails if I just pass in a Zend_Date object. UPDATE: a var_dump of...

Disclaimer: you might need to install a font/typeface which supports Japanese if you see messed up characters. I'm trying to replicate what I've been doing so far with setlocale and strftime: setlocale(LC_ALL, 'ja_JP.utf8'); $time = mktime(); echo strftime('%x', $time), '<br>'; Output: 2010年01月06日 Using Zend_Date - but I...

I'm using Zend_Date to manage dates/times in a scheduling app. The only way I'm able to determine the user's Timezone is via Javascript which only gives a Timezone Offset. Zend_Date only seems to take Timezones in the 'America/New_York' format. Is there a way to get the users timezone in this format or set the Timezone Offset with Ze...
