Bug #55708 [Opn->Bgs]: DateTime->format return wrong Month name "F"

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55708&edit=1 ID: 55708 Updated by: salathe@php.net Reported by: greenrover33 at gmail dot com Summary: DateTime->format return wrong Month name "F" -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: Date/time related Operating System: Ubuntu PHP Version: 5.3.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: When creating a DateTime object with "@timestamp", the timezone will be set to UTC, as mentioned on http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.construct.php. 1159653600 in UTC is Sat, 30 Sep 2006 22:00:00 +0000. The other functions use the timezone set with date_default_timezone_set(), date.timezone, etc. as described in http://php.net/manual/en/function.date- default-timezone-get.php, which is probably something at least 2 hours east of GMT. For example, 1159653600 in Europe/Berlin is Sun, 01 Oct 2006 00:00:00 +0200.
