709 Pointsinsert a comma in the date function
Here is my code:
<?php echo 'Today is '; //Place your code below this comment echo date ("F d ',' Y"); ?>
It doesn't work.
<?php
echo 'Today is ';
//Place your code below this comment
echo date ("F d ',' Y");
?>

$today = date("F j, Y, g:i a"); // March 10, 2001, 5:16 pm
$today = date("m.d.y"); // 03.10.01
$today = date("j, n, Y"); // 10, 3, 2001
You don't need to enclose the comma in it's own quotes

709 PointsI tried that earlier and received this response: Bummer: You must use the built-in date function
Then I just now previewed ignoring the error response and there is the comma.
Thanks guys!!
