#36912 [Opn->Asn]: strtotime subtracting months

ID: 36912 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: epilepticfridgeboy at hotmail dot com -Status: Open +Status: Assigned Bug Type: Date/time related Operating System: debian PHP Version: 5.1.2 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: derick Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-29 13:35:17] epilepticfridgeboy at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ Subtracting a month using strtotime does not always subtract a month. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php print date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-1 month')); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Assuming the code is run on 2006-03-29, I would expect the result to be 2006-02-28, which is one month ago. Actual result: -------------- 2006-03-01 This is not one month ago. This has been reported as a bug before but marked as "Bogus" - no idea how not subtracting one month from a date correctly is bogus... and I wasn't allowed to add this to the notes system in the manual to warn others about this odd behaviour., so here it is again as a bug report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36912&edit=1
