PHP函数识别和解析异常时间格式？

Question

I'm currently working with weather data feeds to assemble some accurate data. This particular feed is being pulled from Norway and has a format of 2012-01-13T19:00:00. The "T" is what throws me off.

Does anyone know if PHP will recognize this format and/or provide a function to parse this particular timestamp?

I would have thought a combo of strtotime() and date(), but apparently it only accepts English formats? I would prefer to avoid doing a regex to strip out the T but if it's necessary I'll work with it.

Many thanks for the help.

Answer 1

Yes, PHP will recognize it, because that's a standardized format.

$timestamp = strtotime('2012-01-13T19:00:00');
