Convert Date and echo for each in PHP Array

I have a list of dates in the format 2012-06-18 which I'm echoing out into an XML file.

foreach ($result_array as $date) {
   echo "<market date=\"".$date['saledate']."></market>\n";
}

Which works fine.

But when I change my code to display the dates in a different format like so...

foreach ($result_array as $date) {
   echo "<market date=\"".date("F j", $date['saledate')]."></market>\n";
}

Each date echos out as December 31. What am I doing wrong here?

Try this :

foreach ($result_array as $date) {
   echo "<market date=\"".date("F j", strtotime($date['saledate']))."></market>\n";
}

Your parenthesis were wrongly ordered too.
