#35414 [Csd->Opn]: strtotime() no longer works with ordinal suffix

ID: 35414 User updated by: km at somehowbythesea dot org dot uk Reported By: km at somehowbythesea dot org dot uk -Status: Closed +Status: Open Bug Type: Date/time related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.1.1 Assigned To: derick New Comment: I neither believe in nor asked any questions about fixing sources by magic. I appreciate your time but not your sarcasm. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-05 10:13:30] sniper@php.net Fixed in CVS does not mean that we somehow magically fixed all released sources..grab a snapshot from http://snaps.php.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-05 09:55:16] km at somehowbythesea dot org dot uk My apologies, Derick. On 'var_dump(strtotime("Sat 26th Nov 2005 18:18"));' I'm getting bool(false). 'echo date(DATE_ISO8601, strtotime("Sat 26th Nov 2005 18:18")), "\n";' gives 1969-12-31T19:00:00-0500. Does this imply my host has rebuilt PHP5.1.1 from the wrong source? Thank you for your quick response to my previous update. I really appreciate it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-05 09:11:52] derick@php.net Works fine: derick@kossu:/dat/dev/php/php-5.1dev$ sapi/cli/php -v PHP 5.1.2RC2-dev (cli) (built: Jan 4 2006 11:24:53) (DEBUG) Copyright (c) 1997-2005 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.1.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2005 Zend Technologies derick@kossu:/dat/dev/php/php-5.1dev$ sapi/cli/php -r 'var_dump(strtotime("Sat 26th Nov 2005 18:18"));' int(1133025480) derick@kossu:/dat/dev/php/php-5.1dev$ sapi/cli/php -r 'echo date(DATE_ISO8601, strtotime("Sat 26th Nov 2005 18:18")), "\n";' 2005-11-26T18:18:00+0100 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-05 07:45:50] km at somehowbythesea dot org dot uk The strtotime function still fails to produce a UNIX timestamp from strings where the date - a number with it's ordinal suffix - precedes the month. For example, "Sat Nov 26th 2005 18:18" will produce a timestamp but "Sat 26th Nov 2005 18:18" will not. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-29 02:23:41] iliaa@php.net This bug has been fixed in CVS. Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
