Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-09-13 13:35:43] SeanECoates@yahoo.ca Seems to be a windows issue: Here's my test script: <?php $date_stamp=986184000; echo $date_stamp ." = ". date("M d, Y, H:i:s A",$date_stamp) ?> Output: -Windows: 986184000 = Apr 02, 2001, 00:00:00 AM -Linux (Linux linux1 2.2.19 #1 Tue Jul 3 09:26:00 EST 2001 i686 unknown) 986184000 = Apr 01, 2001, 23:00:00 PM Is this a Daylight Savings Time issue? Why only on windows? .. sorry for the confusion. (and the really stupid initial bug report examples (-: ) S ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-09-13 13:32:12] SeanECoates@yahoo.ca I'm dumb... Let me get back on this.. might be a windows issue. Sorry. S ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-09-13 13:13:18] SeanECoates@yahoo.ca I hope I haven't overlooked something (again), but this just popped up, and is hurting my current application, big-time. PHP is reporting certain timestamps as the wrong date (specifically, I've found the first week of April 2001 the be erraneous). I noticed that MySQL was converting a specific set of timestamps to dates differently than my php app. So, I tested against perl as well, and PHP is definitely doing SOMETHING weird.. Here are the results: [mysql] SELECT 986184000 AS unix_time, FROM_UNIXTIME(986184000) AS date_stamp, UNIX_TIMESTAMP('2001-04-01 23:00:00') AS unix_time --> unix_time=98618400, date_stamp='2001-04-01 23:00:00', unix_time=98618400 [php] sean@linux1:~$ echo '<?php $date_stamp=986184000; echo $date_stamp ." = ". date("M d, Y, H:i:s A",$date_stamp) ."\n" ?>' | php -q 986184000 = Apr 01, 2001, 23:00:00 PM [perl] sean@linux1:~$ perl -MPOSIX -le 'print ctime(986184000)' Sun Apr 1 23:00:00 2001 Again, I'm really sorry to waste your collective time if this is my mistake.
