<h2>Example date/time to MySQL and UNIX timestamp conversion</h2>
<p>Some people have problems with the conversion from a date posted by a form and into a format for later calculations or just putting the value into a database.<br>
With this class is it possible to convert a date and time field into a (MySQL or UNIX) timestamp. Of course you can extract date and time from a timestamp, too. Before conversting there is a test to check that a date/time is valid.</p>
<p>Try it, insert a date and time and notice both timestamps.<br>The format for a non english date is: <b>dd-mm-yyyy</b></p>
<form action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" method="post">
<label for="date">Date:</label>
<input type="text" name="date" value="<?php echo (isset($_POST['date'])) ? $_POST['date'] : "yyyy-mm-dd"; ?>" size="15"><br>
<label for="time">Time:</label>
<input type="text" name="time" value="<?php echo (isset($_POST['time'])) ? $_POST['time'] : "hh:mm:ss"; ?>" size="15"><br>
non english date?*
<input type="checkbox" name="date_type" value="eu"<?php echo (isset($_POST['date_type'])) ? " checked" : ""; ?>><br>
<input type="submit" name="sub_date" value="Convert!">
</form>
<p><b><?php echo (isset($my_time->error)) ? $my_time->error : " "; ?></b></p>
<?php if (isset($mysql) && isset($unix)) { ?>
<p>Your date time as MySQL timestamp: <b><?php echo $mysql; ?></b><br>and as UNIX timestamp: <b><?php echo $unix; ?></b></p>
<p>Notice the extracted date with different seperators: <b><?php echo $my_time->extract_date(); ?></b></p>
<?php } ?>
</div>
