That's what I thought I might have to do. It's an alternative, but a clunky
one. Thanks Matt.
<<mktime() will not work beyond mid-August of 2038 on 32-bit machines.>>
And there's the confirmation from Richard. It actually goes back to 1969.
Thanks also to David and anyone else I missed. I'm going to try the MySQL
date format that Richard and Matt suggested. But, if all else fails, I'll go
with the array that they suggested, as well.
Thanks again, guys.
