I am trying to create template which shows list of childern of current page. I am using this code
<ul>
<?php
$articles = get_pages('child_of='.$post->ID.'&sort_column=post_date&sort_order=desc');
foreach($articles as $page)
{
?>
<li><?php echo $page->post_date; ?> - <a href="<?php echo get_page_link($page->ID) ?>"><?php echo $page->post_title; ?></a></li>
<?php
}
?>
</ul>
However, output from this code has exact date, including seconds (for example 2011-02-01 07:55:54). Is there any way to format this date to something like "day/month/year"?
