Thanks to tcasparr at gmail dot com for the great idea (at least for me) ;)
I changed the code a little to replicate the functionality of date_parse_from_format, once I
don't have PHP 5.3.0 yet. This might be useful for someone. Hope you don't mind changing
your code tcasparr at gmail dot com.
<?php
/*******************************************************
* Simple function to take in a date format and return array of associated
* formats for each date element
*
* @return array
* @param string $strFormat
*
* Example: Y/m/d g:i:s becomes
* Array
* (
* [year] => Y
* [month] => m
* [day] => d
* [hour] => g
* [minute] => i
* [second] => s
* )
*
* This function is needed for PHP < 5.3.0
********************************************************/
function dateParseFromFormat($stFormat, $stData)
{
$aDataRet = array();
$aPieces = split('[:/.\ \-]', $stFormat);
$aDatePart = split('[:/.\ \-]', $stData);
foreach($aPieces as $key=>$chPiece)
{
switch ($chPiece)
{
case 'd':
case 'j':
$aDataRet['day'] = $aDatePart[$key];
break;
case 'F':
case 'M':
case 'm':
case 'n':
$aDataRet['month'] = $aDatePart[$key];
break;
case 'o':
case 'Y':
case 'y':
$aDataRet['year'] = $aDatePart[$key];
break;
case 'g':
case 'G':
case 'h':
case 'H':
$aDataRet['hour'] = $aDatePart[$key];
break;
case 'i':
$aDataRet['minute'] = $aDatePart[$key];
break;
case 's':
$aDataRet['second'] = $aDatePart[$key];
break;
}
}
return $aDataRet;
}
?>
Also, if you need to change the format of dates:
<?php
function changeDateFormat($stDate,$stFormatFrom,$stFormatTo)
{
// When PHP 5.3.0 becomes available to me
//$date = date_parse_from_format($stFormatFrom,$stDate);
//For now I use the function above
$date = dateParseFromFormat($stFormatFrom,$stDate);
return date($stFormatTo,mktime($date['hour'],
$date['minute'],
$date['second'],
$date['month'],
$date['day'],
$date['year']));
}
?>
