WorknMan 0 Posted February 5, 2011 Just wondering if there is a function to convert a date like Fri, 4 Feb 2011 15:23:19 to the following format: YYYYMMDDHHMMSS Reason why I'm asking is because I have an array of these dates that I'm pulling from RSS feeds, and I need to sort the array from earliest date to latest. Or maybe there's another, more elegant way to go about this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
