Easily parse time durations in PHP

开发者_StackOverflowAlong the lines of the ridicolously simple strtotime() function, Is there a simple way to parse strings such as "1 hour 30 mins", "1.5 hours", "90 mins", "an hour and a half" into an integer value representing the corresponding number of seconds?

i think what you need to convert to seconds:

strtotime('+1 hour 30 mins') - time()
