Alright, Unix time is seconds since the standar epoch 1970-01-01. Does
anyone know the math to convert a standard date (ex: 2003-04-22) into a unix
time, and how to convert a Unix time back into that same date?
I figured you could do it by processing each value:
1 year = 31536000 seconds: 2003 = 1040688000
1 day = 86400 seconds: 22 = 1814400
but then there are months and leap years, so this value is probably incorrect
as it is. I was wondering if anyone knew how to make this conversion without
the use of say php functions like time(). I need to do the conversion from
within a WSH script and export the result into a mySQL formatted file.
