//Usage Example
//You can pass whatever date into the moment call and any php date format into the formatter.
moment(new Date()).formatPHP("examplePHPFormat");

added new feature to get a moment format from php format

    moment.PHPconvertFormat=function(format){
        return format.replace(formatEx, function (phpStr) {
			return typeof formatMap[phpStr] === 'function' ? formatMap[phpStr].call(that) : formatMap[phpStr];
        })
    };

alert ( moment.PHPconvertFormat("d/m/Y") )

This works perfectly, thank you so much!
