Echo date in dd-mm--yy format

[Sean Schaffer]

I searched for a similar question in this forum but didn't see it. I apologize if asked previously. I am echoing into a table a date that is in "dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss" format from a column called "date_added" in my db, but I need to echo it in dd-MM-yy.

I found some info on maybe using strtotime() to format but I'm confused as to where to put the formatting info. The piece of code that echos the date is below.

echo "<td>" . $row["date_added"]. "</td>

Any help is appreciated.
