Nanakshahi PHP calender function

Today I bring you this cool little library by Harpreet Singh Buttar which is a drop-in replacement for php’s date() and time() function.

Demo here

From the README:

Nanakshahi date function
The function’s work just like the php’s date() & time()function.
But it returns everything according to the Nanakshahi calendar.

For example
Timestamp:            1110790861
date() function returns:        Monday, 14 March 2005 – 01:01:01 AM
nanakshahi_date() function returns:    ਸੌਮਞਾਰ, 01 ਚੇਤ 537 – 01:01:01 ਸਵੇਰ

Instructions, the library, and the demo are included in the archive.

Happy New Year!

Wishing Everyone a Happy Nanakshahi New Years! GURU CHARDHI KALA Bakhshey!!
I think today would be the perfect day to launch my website/blog/random idea site so here it is! On this site I hope to regularly post lots of cool stuff, so make sure to check back regularly!

Often throughout the web you can be browsing and you run into a blog or personal website that hasn’t been updated in years, despite the fact that it showed some great potential to become a really cool site. Also browsing around you see  a lot of cool Sikhi-related things that you bookmark, only to find at a later date that the site no longer exists and the cool file/link/picture/download or whatever you liked is nowhere to be found.

To that end I hope to start and maintain the SikhNerd Sikh Resource Archive where I will keep a copy of all the cool stuff  I think is worth saving and archiving forever. If you have some suggestions for things worth saving/mirroring/archiving please shoot me an email  – sra  @  sikhnerd.com
