I have the following code to format dates:
$date = new Zend_Date();
$date->set(strtotime($some_date);
echo ($date->get(Zend_Date::DATE_FULL));
it wokrs fine on my localhost outputting the date as I need it to be outputted. However on my online server the dates are outputted in a weird numerical way.
i.e the numeric value fo the Day and month are shown instead of the text - it reads as 2, 2010 7 12 instead of Monday 12th July 2010
How do I fix this!
Sounds to me like it's using a different locale on the server. Try setting a locale and see what happens then: http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.locale.introduction.html
