function aggregator_parse_w3cdtf

aggregator_parse_w3cdtf($date_str)

Parses the W3C date/time format, a subset of ISO 8601.

PHP date parsing functions do not handle this format. See http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime for more information. Originally from MagpieRSS (http://magpierss.sourceforge.net/).

Parameters

$date_str: A string with a potentially W3C DTF date.

Return value

A timestamp if parsed successfully or FALSE if not.
