[ohdang888]

I have dates in this format:

Wed, 26 May 2010 14:59:42 +0000

 

how can i get the mysql datetime or unix timestamp from this date?

 

Thanks

Use the strtotime function and the date function

<?php
$str = 'Wed, 26 May 2010 14:59:42 +0000';
$timestamp = strtotime($str);
echo $timestamp . '<br>';
$datetime = date('Y-m-d',$timestamp);
echo $datetime . '</br>';
?>
