Weekday Date Calculations
The user enters a time, say 9am, then enters the day of the week, say Monday. Assuming we know the timezone the user is in, how can we work out what day and time the user has entered in GMT time?

Note this is for a weekly timetable so there is no date information like day, month, year so I guess mktime won't do the trick?

I supposed I would like to use something like mktime to work our the GMT time and weekday, but how does one use just time and weekday to perform date calculations?

Regex Issue - Converting A Written Date To A Timestamp
I have a problem, somehow through one of my scripts, all the timestamps in my database were set to 0000-00-00 00:00:00. I can fix this because one of the fields contains the written date in this format "Wednesday, June 7, 2006", I think I need to make a regex expression that can read that and generate a new timestamp from it,

I'm just not sure where to start because I've barely used regex. Some of the dates are not in that format because it contains over two years worth of data, and I want to just delete the ones that are not in that format as well. I'd appreciate any help here, I'm kind of stumped. Once I match the expression I can generate the timestamp, but I don't know how to match it.

Converting From 5 To 4
I am new to all this but have written a simple quotation system that runs on my IIS server I've set up at home running PHP5 and mySQL5 and all is working fine.

The problem I have had is that I didn't realise that most hosts, like the one I am registered with, are still running PHP4 and mySQL4 and nothing works.

How difficult will it be to downgrade my code?? It is using functions and is object oriented. As it is my first time I am not even sure if I have set up the SQL server correctly, but I think I have. I can send you all the files if neccessary - but I doubt someone else would like to work through them..
