Date to time

Feb 25.2010

I was reading up on a tutorial on how to make one of those “Last Scene” scripts… As in, Hooded_Villian was last logged in 3 days ago.

Anyways… In the script, the guy uses a past date set in a variable, however, ehe said he stripped the date down and ended up with some numbers.

[code=php]$pastdate = 1209358800;//April 28 2008[/code]

How does one do that with a date? Is it like converting to a Hexidecimal number or is it something more sinister 😮

Thanks in Advance…

echo strtotime("April 28 2008 06:00:00 am"); // 1209358800
echo date('F j Y h:i:s a', 1209358800); // April 28 2008 06:00:00 am[/code]

I am learning that the hard way...
