title: PHP date conversion dd [th/st/rd] / month / yyyy
body: <p>I have my users entering the date in this format :- <code>mm/dd/yyyy (11/21/2012)</code></p>
  
  <p>My PHP script converts the date into the following format :- <code>dd-Month-yyyy (21-November-2012)</code></p>
  
  <p>I do this using :-</p>
  
  <pre><code>$new_date = date('d-F-Y', strtotime($user_date));
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I have the date in this format :- <code>21st November 2012</code>?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
