I'm having a date format of Jun 26, '12.strtotime() converts proper date string, and this string results in a blank output.
This can be solved but I can only think of ugly ways of doing it.
Any ideas for converting this date format to UNIX timestamp elegantly?

Use the getTime() method to convert a date to a timestamp, e.g. new Date(). getTime() . The getTime method returns the number of milliseconds elapsed between the 1st of January, 1970 and the given date.
Convert from human-readable date to epoch long epoch = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss").parse("01/01/1970 01:00:00").getTime() / 1000; Timestamp in seconds, remove '/1000' for milliseconds. date +%s -d"Jan 1, 1980 00:00:01" Replace '-d' with '-ud' to input in GMT/UTC time.
The Unix epoch (or Unix time or POSIX time or Unix timestamp) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 (midnight UTC/GMT), not counting leap seconds (in ISO 8601: 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z).
How about this strtotime('Jun 26,12');

I used DateTime::createFromFormat works well for me.. more info here.
