Description

strptime() returns an array with the
date parsed, or FALSE on error.
Month and weekday names and other language dependent strings respect the
current locale set with setlocale() (LC_TIME).
Parameters
-
date(string) -
The string to parse (e.g. returned from strftime()).
-
format(string) -
The format used in
date(e.g. the same as used in strftime()). Note that some of the format options available to strftime() may not have any effect within strptime(); the exact subset that are supported will vary based on the operating system and C library in use.For more information about the format options, read the strftime() page.
Return Values
Returns an array or FALSE on failure.

Examples
Example #1 strptime() example
<?php
$format = '%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S';
$strf = strftime($format);
echo "$strf\n";
print_r(strptime($strf, $format));
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
03/10/2004 15:54:19
Array
(
[tm_sec] => 19
[tm_min] => 54
[tm_hour] => 15
[tm_mday] => 3
[tm_mon] => 9
[tm_year] => 104
[tm_wday] => 0
[tm_yday] => 276
[unparsed] =>
)
Notes
Note: This function is not implemented on Windows platforms.
Note:
Internally, this function calls the strptime() function provided by the system's C library. This function can exhibit noticeably different behaviour across different operating systems. The use of date_parse_from_format(), which does not suffer from these issues, is recommended on PHP 5.3.0 and later.
Note:
"tm_sec" includes any leap seconds (currently upto 2 a year). For more information on leap seconds, see the » Wikipedia article on leap seconds.
Note:
Prior to PHP 5.2.0, this function could return undefined behaviour. Notably, the "tm_sec", "tm_min" and "tm_hour" entries would return undefined values.
