NOTES

	Using the Unix timestamp format to construct a new DateTime object is an alternative when using PHP 5.2, as shown in the example below.

       Example #2

	      DateTime.setTimestamp(3) alternative in PHP 5.2

	      <?php
	      $ts = 1171502725;
	      $date = new DateTime("@$ts");
	      echo $date->format('U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "
";
	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      1171502725 = 2007-02-14 20:25:25
