TalkPHP - View Single Post - Tutorial - Getting th, st and rd (ordinal suffixes) on numbers and dates

If you're using dates, then php's date function is much more flexible. The "th/st/rd" suffixes are available by using S in the formatting string.

PHP Code:


			
<?php

$date = now();
echo date('F jS', $date); // April 4th

?>
