#40804 [NEW]: strtotime returning bad dates (last <day>)

From: zirephoenix at rogers dot com Operating system: PHP version: 4.4.6 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: strtotime returning bad dates (last <day>) Description: ------------ My hosting told me to post the bug here instead of asking them to figure it out. They recently upgraded to 4.4.6 and the strtotime function started returning bad dates for some of the "last <day>" strings. The code below should show a continuous list of dates, but it doesn't. It seems to break from last week of today to last sunday. Reproduce code: --------------- <html> <body> <?php echo date("F d, Y", strtotime("last sunday")) . "<br>\n"; echo date("F d, Y", strtotime("last monday")) . "<br>\n"; echo date("F d, Y", strtotime("last tuesday")) . "<br>\n"; echo date("F d, Y", strtotime("last wednesday")) . "<br>\n"; echo date("F d, Y", strtotime("last thursday")) . "<br>\n"; echo date("F d, Y", strtotime("last friday")) . "<br>\n"; echo date("F d, Y", strtotime("last saturday")) . "<br>\n"; ?> </body> </html> Expected result: ---------------- March 11, 2007 March 12, 2007 March 13, 2007 March 07, 2007 March 08, 2007 March 09, 2007 March 10, 2007 Actual result: -------------- March 10, 2007 March 12, 2007 March 13, 2007 March 06, 2007 March 07, 2007 March 08, 2007 March 09, 2007 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40804&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40804&r=mysqlcfg
