For  PHP    5 2 0    You can use DateTime class  However you might need to change your date format  Didn t try yours  The following date format will work for sure  YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM-SS   date   new DateTime  2010-04-08 22 15 00    echo  date- gt format  g          date- gt format  i          date- gt format  A       output   10 15 PM   However  in my opinion  using   as a separator for 10 15 is not recommended because your users might be confused either this is a decimal number or time format  The most common way is to use 10 15 PM

You need to convert it to a UNIX timestamp  using strtotime  and then back into the format you require using the date function   For example     currentDateTime    08 04 2010 22 15 00    newDateTime   date  h i A   strtotime  currentDateTime
