Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. Please note the manual page: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php ---------------------------- %G - The 4-digit year corresponding to the ISO week number (see %V). This has the same format and value as %Y, except that if the ISO week number belongs to the previous or next year, that year is used instead. ---------------------------- A reminder about ISO week numbers. They begin on mondays, end on sundays, and are considered a part of the year in which the majority of their days fall. 12/31/2001 falls on a monday, it's ISO week ends on Sunday 1/6/2002, (six days fall in 2002, one falls in 2001) ergo %G for that date returns "2002". This is expected behavior for %G. Try using %Y instead.
