Thanks, Shawn, that's a bit more elegant! I'll give it a go. I didn't
know how to do the str_relace bit. Thanks
The deal is that if you use the / then strtotime interprets it as m/d/y
and if you use - it interprets it as d-m-y.
Yes, I knew the '-' format would work, I just didn't know quite how to
convert the '/' to '-'. A very simple and clean solution.
The final form is:
function read_data($filename)
{
$f = fopen($filename, 'r');
while ($d = fgetcsv($f)) {
$ts = strtotime(str_replace('/','-',$d[0]));
$data[] = array($ts, $d[1]);
}
fclose($f);
return $data;
}
