Is there an opposite of the date() function (for formatting?)
<p>I know that there's <code>strtotime()</code>, but that's not quite what I'm looking for.</p>

<p>Say I have this: <code>date('l, F jS', $datetime)</code></p>

<p>Would there be a function where I can tell it the format (<code>'l, F jS'</code>) and a string (for example: <code>Saturday, August 21st</code> And it will output a timestamp?</p>
