Date number format in template ?

New comment
 
When I save a template, dates parameters are saved not under classical yy.mm.dd but under a number. I did a search on Internet and can't find how to convert from date string format to this date number format. Can someone tell me how or points to an article, thanks and Happy Year!
 

if u mean this no. create_time=1289312373

Datetime constant can vary from Jan 1, 1970 to Dec 31, 2037

Its internal representation is a long integer number of 4 bytes. The value represents the amount of seconds elapse from 00:00 Jan 1, 1970.
