Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-09 02:33:47] chris at deskpro dot com I will add I get different wrong resuls (but always wrong) based on the DST setting. This is only tested on Windows. I am in -8 GMT (PST) with no dayling savings time (-8 PST) the last result is NOW - 8 hours (instead of NOW + 8 hours) When I enable DST (now in PDT) I get GMT - 2 hours OR NOW + 6 hours In the 1st one, the difference (8 hours) has been taken away instead of added; this is probably someone just using a - instead of a + The problem when DST is enabled I have much less of an idea about. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-09 02:16:34] chris at deskpro dot com Description: ------------ Please run the reproduce code: In PHP 4.3.9 (windows) and PHP 4.3.7 (linux) I get the same result. 3 results are displayed in local time, 2 are in GMT and 1 (the bottom one) is meaningless. It appears that PHP is taking the hours off, not adding them in. I do not know if this is a bug in date or gmmktime. Importantly, this does NOT happen in PHP 5, this is what convinced me this is a bug. Reproduce code: --------------- echo "<table>"; echo "<tr><td>gmdate('D, jS M Y g:i a') : </td><td>" . gmdate('D, jS M Y g:i a') . "</td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td>date('D, jS M Y g:i a'); : </td><td>" . date('D, jS M Y g:i a') . "</td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td>gmdate('D, jS M Y g:i a', mktime()); : </td><td>" . gmdate('D, jS M Y g:i a', mktime()) . "</td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td>gmdate('D, jS M Y g:i a', gmmktime()); : </td><td>" . gmdate('D, jS M Y g:i a', gmmktime()) . "</td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td>date('D, jS M Y g:i a', mktime()); : </td><td>" . date('D, jS M Y g:i a', mktime()) . "</td></tr>"; echo "<tr><td>date('D, jS M Y g:i a', gmmktime()); : </td><td>" . date('D, jS M Y g:i a', gmmktime()) . "</td></tr>"; echo "</table>"; Expected result: ---------------- The results should be: GMT Local GMT Local Local GMT Actual result: -------------- GMT Local GMT Local Local Meaningless ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32640&edit=1
