#19165 [NEW]: strtotime does not return -1 on some invalid dates

From: jc@mega-bucks.co.jp Operating system: Red Hat Linux 7.2 PHP version: 4.2.2 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: strtotime does not return -1 on some invalid dates This code shows that strtotime does not recognize some dates that are in the correct format but invalid: $bod = "1970-1-222"; echo "I think that $bod is timestamp " . strtotime($bod) . "<BR>"; echo "and that would be " . date("Y-n-d",strtotime($bod)). "<BR>"; The output is: I think that 1970-1-222 is timestamp 19062000 and that would be 1970-8-10 The documentation says that strtotime should report -1 on a failure. Shouldn't this be a failure?
