I currently do this: $raw="Nov 28 18:26:35 2002"; $when=`date -jf '%a %b %e %T %Y' "$raw" '+%s'`;
when I'd much rather do this: $raw="Nov 28 18:26:35 2002"; $when=strptime($raw, '%a %b %e %T %Y'); which is of course a non-existent function in PHP. I'd like to stop calling a subshell every time I process a date, but I'd also like to avoid jumping through hoops with mktime. Is there a better way?
