Outputting text equivalent of a date

[itledi]

Hello,

I'm trying to output the text equivalent of a date.

I'm using the following code, but it keeps returning "Wednesday, December 31st,".

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

$date="2007-12-26";
echo date("l, F jS, ",$date);

$date = "2007-12-26";
$e = strtotime($date);
echo date("l, F jS, Y ",$e);

Date [php.net]

Thank you, that function worked perfectly!
