Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-02 13:17:52] jani@php.net Derick, this bug has obviously been fixed in PHP_5_2. As it has been a bugfix why isn't it committed to PHP_5_2?! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-21 12:05:00] jani@php.net Derick, feedback was given.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-16 23:18:39] till@php.net Confirmed it broken in 5.2.7-dev as well. Since it appears to be fixed in 5.3-alpha3-dev, is there any chance this fix can be backported? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-16 22:56:28] till@php.net I had second thoughts about the "timestamp" passed into strtotime(), so I tried to create the date in a slightly different way but it failed never the less. I can also confirm this on 5.2.6_2 on FreeBSD. Additional code: Works: <?php // 2008-12-02 echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Tuesday December 2008')); ?> Does not: <?php // 2008-12-08 echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Monday December 2008')); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-10-16 16:29:22] till@php.net Sorry to re-open, I found the same bug on: PHP Version 5.2.6-pl6-gentoo Some code to reproduce: <?php echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first Monday', mktime(0, 0, 0, 12, 1, 2008))); ?> Shows 2008-12-08, while indeed the first Monday in December is 2008-12-01. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
