The 32 bits second counter (seconds sinds 1970) is out of bits then. It should be fixed, but not very important at the moment (I think). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2000-10-09 17:15:45] michael@listevent.com When creating a calendar application ... everything works fine until year 2038. Then it breaks. Is there any reason for limiting the date/time functions to 2037 years? http://durras.listevent.com/year.php?year=2037 http://durras.listevent.com/month.php?year=2037&month=12 Thanks, Michael --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=7103
