[FX.php List] Date Format in fx.php

[Gjermund Gusland Thorsen]

That topic is covered in the forum: http://fxdialog.comitas.no
If I remember by heart this should help you out?

$time = explode( '/', $deliveriesData['Date Due'][0] );
echo date( 'j / n - Y', mktime( 0, 0, 0, $time[0], $time[1], $time[1] ) );
