Date evaluation using regular expression

Recommended Posts

I have to extract a date from an array but i dont know on what index this date is. All I know is that the date is in the format "dd/mm/yy".

I ran a loop through all the indices of array to search for this date pattern but it doesn't seem to be working. The pattern i implemented is as below:

 

                  /^([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})$/

 

can anyone help me please ???

http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=317054.0 deals with a similar issue.

 

they used: preg_match_all('/\d\d-[a-z][a-z][a-z]-\d\d\d\d/i', $text) to find a date with the format dd-MON-dddd.

 

Can you figure it out from here?
