Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62353&edit=1 ID: 62353 Updated by: pajoye@php.net Reported by: mike dot mackintosh at angrystatic dot com Summary: strtotime fails to interpret time correctly, uses character after decimal point Status: Open Type: Bug -Package: date_time +Package: Date/time related Operating System: Ubuntu 12.04 x86_64 PHP Version: 5.4Git-2012-06-18 (snap) Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: fix cat Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-18 16:51:12] mike dot mackintosh at angrystatic dot com On 6/18/2012 12:50 PM Est, when running: echo date("m/d/y H:i", strtotime("-1.0 day")); The following is returned: 06/18/12 09:50 (Minus 3 hours). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-18 16:48:54] mike dot mackintosh at angrystatic dot com The following behavior is also present: echo date("m/d/y H:i", strtotime("1.5 days ago")); Results in -5 days, 5 hours. It would be expected to return -1 day and 12 hours, being relative. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-18 16:32:25] mike dot mackintosh at angrystatic dot com Description: ------------ PHP fails to interpret correctly the relative time string when a decimal is used. PHP will use the character after the decimal point as the multiplier/value in timelib_relative_time. Using an integer of 1.0, results in no change. Test script: --------------- echo date("m/d/y", strtotime("+1.5 years")); echo date("m/d/y", strtotime("+1.0 years")); Expected result: ---------------- 12/18/13 06/18/13 Actual result: -------------- 06/18/17 06/18/12 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62353&edit=1
