Bug #2253: date functions reporting strange values

From: terry@dynavar.com Operating system: Cobalt Linux PHP version: 3.0.12 PHP Bug Type: Misbehaving function Bug description: date functions reporting strange values I am running a cobalt version of redhat linux and installe php3 and immediately noted some very strange behaviour using the date and time functions, the values being returned are very odd. I first ran across this when trying to use this script: http://www.phpwizard.net/phpMisc/calendar.php3?month=12&year=1999 This script is found here: http://www.phpwizard.net/phpMisc/scripts/pretty/calendar.php3 For instance on my machine this code: $daycount = date( "t", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, 1, $year)); returns a value of 't'?? The machine is a mips processor and I installed php3 from a rpm at www.cobaltnet.com, I would happily give you ssh login to the server to verify it or further explain.
