Hey. I have a php date time question. I am passing a date/time string to another page. The problem is that it is in the form:
m/d/y h:m

I want an easy way to parse out the year... month.. minutes.
I thought that if I use that strtodate() I could do this.

$time = "7/14/1981 3:45 PM"; // actually gets requested[].
$timestamp = strtodate($time);
$hour = date("h", $timestamp);

That was just an example I wrote on the fly... but an error tells me that it is prior to 1970 and it can't do it. Is there another way that I can do this easily? Is there a problem with my logic... maybe I'm missing something.

thanx,
Brandon
