#28594 [Bgs]: strtotime bug

ID: 28594 Updated by: mgf@php.net Reported By: tavancini at hotmail dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Date/time related Operating System: Windows 2000 Server PHP Version: 4.3.6 New Comment: This has now become a support query, which should be directed to php-general@lists.php.net. (However, I suggest you look at mktime(), and using a day number which occurs in every month.)
