Internet Time */ beat = (((((long)the_time)-(((long)the_time) - ((((long)the_time) % 86400) + 3600))) * 10) / 864); -- the fix -- if (beat < 0) beat += 1000; if (beat > 999) beat -= 1000; -- end fix -- sprintf(tmp_buff, "%03d", beat); /* SAFE */ strcat(return_value->value.str.val, tmp_buff); break; -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8242&edit=1
