See java.text.DateFormat.parse()
gets you a java.util.Date which you can call getTime() on.
Good Luck!

Subject: [OT - a bit] Changing a date from dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm:ss to number
of milliseconds since 1970
Hi,
Does anyone know of a way of doing this convertion in Java or in struts for
that matter? My db needs the milliseconds, rounded to seconds and I'm
asking the user for a date in the normal format. As a *major* not, I can't
do the convertion client side as I have to keep the output to them as dumb
as possible (ie pure html only, *NO* JavaScripts or the like :-( )
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Cheers
Simon
