Date handling is not robust enough #8

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
If the incoming file has a "Last-Modified" tag that looks like 
<meta http-equiv="Last-Modified" content="Thu, 15 Jan 2009 18:40:46 EST"/> 
the timezone seems to be ignored and instead the time converted to GMT.
Also the parser is quite strict about the format and slight variations seem
to throw it off.

There are a bunch of different date parsers that are more flexible that are
available both in the GNU glibc and under other GNU like licenses. Probably
should use one of those? CURL seems to have good one

The timezone handling has been implemented in the latest snapshot of 4.52 
version.
