im storing dates in sql in unix epoch format in a table int(10)
its easy to do date validation that way but makes it hard for humans to read in that format. i can convert it back to a date format easy but its in USA format - how do i display it in UK format ?

Dunno if you are using Oracle, but I use alter session set nls_date_format to change the format style of a date during my SQL session. Alternatively you can use todate in a select to do a 1 shot conversion.

More info here on nls_date_format...

...and Don looks like he's great craic too.

Yeah been a long time. I just cancelled my subscription to WOW. It get's boring when you've done it all, plus the teamwork in PVP isn't as good as the teamwork in DC, BFV, POE, etc...

So, I inallted my copy of Battlefield 2 I bought a year ago, and after tweaking the settings, it's a pretty damn good game. Was in stitches the other night - I forgot how fun BF series was.

I didn't see a BF2 server at GCHQ, just a PoE BF2 server with no one on it! What's going on there? What do you lot play? BF2142? Wouldn't mind killing a few of u lot again, and dying even more...
