what format does the date have to be in? I looked over
http://php.net/strtotime and it doesnt give much detail on that. I also need to include time and date.

strtotime() will attempt to translate whatever you give it into a unix timestamp.

Code: Select all
echo strtotime('January 1 2008 1:45am');
translated fine for me
