RSS time format

[JamesGMills]

So the standard date/time format for RSS feeds is

Mon, 23 Mar 2009 17:32:59 +0000

Whatever that is called...

So its easy enough to make that format to make an RSS feed/item but what about when reading them in?

I thought this would work:

INFO: $value['created_at'] = Mon, 23 Mar 2009 17:32:59 +0000


$myDate = strtotime($value['created_at']);
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $myDate);

But I get 1970-01-01 00:00:00

I am sure I used to use this method?

Hi

I would say, it works for me. You also have those quotes, right ?

[blue]master #[/blue] cat php.php 
<?php

$value['created_at'] = [COLOR=red pink]'[/color]Mon, 23 Mar 2009 17:32:59 +0000[COLOR=red pink]'[/color];

$myDate = strtotime($value['created_at']);

echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $myDate);

?>

[blue]master #[/blue] php php.php 
2009-03-23 19:32:59

[blue]master #[/blue] php --version

I was being stupid, I have it working now... sorry... I usually wait a day or two before I start asking questions because its usually a spelling or something...

Thanks
