Thanks to the Captain for the handiest Unix time -to- date converter, and vice versa! 

And in case you ever need to create a Unix time format, you can use php’s date and mktime functions to do so:

$hour= date(“H”);

$minute= date(“i”);

$second= date(“s”);

$day = date(“j”);

$month = date(“n”);

$year = date(“Y”);

$unix_time = mktime($hour,$minute,$second, $month, $day, $year);

You can override your server’s timezone setting using date_default_timezone_set.
