first of all:
I use php 4.0.1pl2 and don't have the possibility to upgrade. Please verify with latest
version.
I tried to add 12 months to a given timestamp and figured out that mktime() doesn't include a
29th February into its calculations. Effect is, that following code doesn't jump forward 1 year
during each loop. Every leap year 1 day gets lost!
$a = mktime(0,0,0,1,1,1970);
for ($i=0; $i<20; $i++) {
$a = mktime(0,0,3600 +$a,1+12,1,1970);
$b = date("d-m-Y", $a);
print "Date: $b<br>";
}
