[1] https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51096 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-12-23 23:28:24] Rican7 at gmail dot com Hmm, it seems that this was broken sometime back in 5.3.3... http://3v4l.org/Cioac ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-10-02 08:15:20] a dot schilder at gmx dot de Description: ------------ Following the documentation, creating a new DateTime instance with the realtive format "first day" (without month) should result in "the day of the first of the current month" (although it's recommended to use it with the optional month): http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.relative.php In my tests (also in PHP 5.3.27 and PHP 5.4.7) a wrong date was created. As far as I can see, it's always the current time + 1 day. Test script: --------------- <?php echo PHP_VERSION . "\r\n"; $datetime1 = new DateTime('now'); echo $datetime1->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\r\n"; $datetime2 = new DateTime('first day of this month'); echo $datetime2->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\r\n"; $datetime3 = new DateTime('first day'); echo $datetime3->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\r\n"; Expected result: ---------------- 2013-09-30: 5.5.4 2013-09-30 07:59:29 2013-09-01 07:59:29 2013-09-01 07:59:29 2013-10-01: 5.5.4 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-02: 5.5.4 2013-10-02 07:59:29 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-01 07:59:29 Actual result: -------------- 2013-09-30: 5.5.4 2013-09-30 07:59:29 2013-09-01 07:59:29 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-01: 5.5.4 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-02 07:59:29 2013-10-02: 5.5.4 2013-10-02 07:59:29 2013-10-01 07:59:29 2013-10-03 07:59:29 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65807&edit=1
