Re: [PHP] Re: how to test string to see if it is a date or time?

[Erwin Kerk]

Try this (as found on php.net)

$str = 'Not Good';
if (($timestamp = strtotime($str)) === -1) {
    echo "The string ($str) is bogus";
} else {
    echo "$str == ". date('l dS of F Y h:i:s A',$timestamp);
}

can anybody help me out with this?  I have figured out checkdate finally,
but still have nothing that will help me with time validation.


explode() on the time delimiter (probably colon)
check that hour is 1-12 (or 0-23)
check that minute is 0-59
check that second is 0-59
