how to extract month from given date by using string functions?..

Answer / guest


print strftime('%B',time());

This will return the name of the current month.
And date('M') also will return current month.

If you want to get month from the date then use the
following way.

$date=date('d/M/Y')
$date=substr($date,strpos($date,'/')+1);
$date=substr($date,0,strpos($date,'/'));

Finally $date will contain the month name.
