I have a year (2002) and I'm trying to get it into the following format:
2002-00-00T00:00:00
I tried various iterations, the last of which was this:
$testdate = DateTime::createFromFormat(DateTime::ISO8601, date("c"))
echo date_format($testdate, '2002');
But, even if I come close, it always seems to add +00:00 to the end of it...

The 'c' format in PHP always appends the timezone offset. You can't avoid that. But you can build the date yourself from components:
date('Y-m-dTH:i:s', $testdate);
I always seem to make things more complicated than necessary... Thanks!

omg! I was looking for this for a long time. I figured out the 'c' part, but didn't know that I had to escape the T. I kept getting timezone for T. Whew! Thanks.

Thank you for this code snippet, which might provide some limited short-term help. A proper explanation would greatly improve its long-term value by showing why this is a good solution to the problem, and would make it more useful to future readers with other, similar questions. Please edit your answer to add some explanation, including the assumptions you've made.
