Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-11 13:29:33] root at mantoru dot de Just out of interest... if the way date() works doesn't support milliseconds, why does 'u' exist in the first place? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-11 06:20:31] bjori@php.net Reclassified as documentation problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-10 21:06:47] derick@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php date() itself uses a integer based unix timestamp, which does not support fractions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-10-10 20:02:41] root at mantoru dot de Description: ------------ The u modifier is supposed to convert into microseconds... however, under Windows (5.2.3) and Linux (5.2.4), I'm always getting '000000'. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php echo date('u'); ?> Expected result: ---------------- 6-digit number Actual result: -------------- 000000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42921&edit=1
