I believe java is epoch time and is returned in milliseconds.... 
so just take that value and divide it by 1000 then use that in your date function 






$seconds = $java_time / 1000; 


$date = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $seconds );

Subject: [nycphp-talk] Date conversion from Java timestamp to PHP date 




Hello, 
I was wondering if anyone has a way to convert a Java timestamp into a proper PHP date format. I am plugging into an API, and what i thought was a Unix timestamp appears to be a Java timestamp, which there is a difference in the conversion. All posts I've read so far says, there a difference with milliseconds, but I was wondering if anyone else has found a solution to this. 

Forums say to plug the timestamp into the normal PHP date() function, but though I get a proper month and day, the year is really obviously wrong. 

Thanks in advance, 
~Rob
