ID: 28599 Comment by: gregg dot somes at gmail dot com Reported by: fr33k at techie dot com Summary: strtotime fails with certain intervals & zero base time Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Date/time related Operating System: Debian PHP Version: 4.3.5 Assigned To: derick Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I am using PHP 5.2.6 on Windows XP personal production server with Apache/2.0.63 (Win32) PHP/5.2.6 and mySQL Server 5.1.59. I am encountering a problem with strtotime() function that returns FALSE on certain date strings. For example strtotime("02-03-2009") returns 1235980800 where strtotome("03-25-2009") returns FALSE. It appears that it doesn't really matter what the date strings are that make it fail, for instance 05-07-2009 returns 1246777200 and 05-01-2009 returns 1231142400 however 05-28-2011 returns FALSE as does 05-31-2011 Any suggestions how to overcome this behavior?

The following code: <?php print date("d-m-Y H:i:s", strtotime("+30 minutes", time())); ?> gives me, in php4, the correct 30 minutes extra added to current time, eg: 18-07-2004 18:45:21 (when now is 18:15:21) BUT in php5.0.0, the 30 minutes are added to 00:00:00 at todays date, eg: 18-07-2004 00:30:00, which is of course wrong. Reproduced on both mandrake and debian installations of php5 in either cli(mdk)/cgi(deb). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-06-12 12:13:39] der...@php.net This should be assigned to me... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-06-12 01:00:03] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is being suspended automatically.
