ibase_timefmt

(PHP 3 >= 3.0.6, PHP 4)

Sets the format of timestamp, date or time type columns returned
from queries. Internally, the columns are formatted by c-function
strftime(), so refer to its documentation regarding to the format
of the string. columntype is one of the
constants IBASE_TIMESTAMP, IBASE_DATE and IBASE_TIME. If omitted,
defaults to IBASE_TIMESTAMP for backwards compatibility.

    /* InterBase 6 TIME-type columns will be returned in
     * the form '05 hours 37 minutes'. */
    ibase_timefmt("%H hours %M minutes", IBASE_TIME);

You can set defaults for these formats with the PHP configuration
directives ibase.timestampformat, ibase.dateformat and ibase.timeformat.

Note:
This function has been removed from PHP 5, use ini_set() instead.
