convert dates in Unix time format
 

Hello all,
I have around 900 dates in the format of DD-MM-YYYY and I want to convert them in Unix time format...
Is there a way to do this? I was thinking of passing them into an array, and then, for each date, I would use the function date() I suppose and get the Unix time format of them... But I don't know the way to do it...

So, for instance, if you have:
$date_to_format='05-10-2006' , how would I get the Unix timestamp?

Thank you in advance!

you would have to extract the year, month and day values of the date then use mktime().

[PHP]$unix_timestamp = mktime(date("G"), date("i"), date("s"), substr($date_to_format, 0, 2), substr($date_to_format, 3, 2), substr($date_to_format, 6), date("I"));[/PHP]Hope that helps.
