strtotime help

I’m trying to parse the dateTaken field from Flickr’s RSS feed for a plugin. Unfortunately:

2007-07-04T22:04:27-08:00

returns ‘-1’ when I run strtotime(). Any thoughts on how to parse this string into a valid datetime?

convert it from 2007-07-04T22:04:27-08:00 to 2007-07-04 22:04:27 -08:00 and then feed it to strtotime:

$time = strtotime(preg_replace('/^(.{10}).(.{8})(.+)$/', '$1 $2 $3', $flickr_date));
