Doc #65762 [NEW]: Example citing use of constant is slightly inaccurate
From: ben at indietorrent dot org
Operating system: Windows
PHP version: 5.4.20
Package: Documentation problem
Bug Type: Documentation Problem
Bug description:Example citing use of constant is slightly inaccurate
Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.date
---
The example that demonstrates the use of a constant appears to be
inaccurate:
<?php
/* use the constants in the format parameter */
// prints something like: Mon, 15 Aug 2005 15:12:46 UTC
echo date(DATE_RFC822);
?>
This actually prints something like the following:
Wed, 25 Sep 13 17:56:44 -0400
(notice that the last segment is the timezone *offset*, not the timezone
abbreviation, as the comment in the example states).
However, the manual entry is correct (only the example is incorrect).
