This is a code to convert RSS pubDate to a timestamp.
A timestamp is an INT which is faster and easier to sort than VARCHAR.
<?php
function pubDate_to_timestamp($time){
//Thu, 21 Aug 2008 01:14:36 PDT
//=> date("D, j M Y H:i:s T");
$time = explode(' ', $time);
$chrono = explode(':', $time[4]);
$month = array('Jan' => 1, 'Feb' => 2, 'Mar' => 3,
'Apr' => 4, 'May' => 5,
'Jun' => 6, 'Jul' => 7, 'Aug' => 8,
'Sep' => 9, 'Oct' => 10,
'Nov' => 11, 'Dec' => 12);
$mktime = mktime($chrono[0], $chrono[1], $chrono[2], $month[$time[2]], $time[1], $time[3],
$time[5]);
return $mktime;
}
?>
