#34055 [NEW]: Odd exception in strtotime parsing

From: markjreed at mail dot com Operating system: Any PHP version: 5.0.3 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: Odd exception in strtotime parsing Description: ------------ This doesn't seem to fall into the same category as the other strtotime() bugs I found in the system. Here is an example: $ php -r 'echo strftime("%c\n", strtotime("0900 tomorrow"));' Sat Jan 26 13:50:04 2008 If I add a colon to the time ("09:00 tomorrow"), or exchange the date and time ("tomorrow 0900"), it produces the expected result. I don't know quite what's going on here. Note that Perl's Time::ParseDate::parsedate function handles such strings properly. The expected and actual output below are only for the particular moment when I tried it; they will vary depending on the time of the test. Reproduce code: --------------- echo strftime("%c\n", strtotime("0900 tomorrow")); Expected result: ---------------- Wed Aug 10 09:00:00 2005 Actual result: -------------- Sat Jan 26 13:50:04 2008 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34055&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=34055&r=mysqlcfg
