ID: 46932 Updated by: jani@php.net Reported By: for-bugs at hnw dot jp Status: Open Bug Type: Documentation problem Operating System: any PHP Version: 5.2.8 New Comment: Both PHP_5_2 and PHP_5_3 output same now. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-15 08:39:24] for-bugs at hnw dot jp How about PHP 5.2.8? PHP 5.2.8 also does same behavior. I think this behavior is introduced by fix #43452. http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43452 The bug ticket has been closed, but this confused behaviour is not documented. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-23 14:14:18] derick@php.net 5.3 does the proper behavior. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-23 06:18:53] for-bugs at hnw dot jp Description: ------------ With PHP 5.2.8 or 5.3.0alpha3, 'next Monday' and '+1 Monday' is diffrenet. On Monday, 'next Monday' seems the same day. However, '+1 Monday' means 1 week later. 'next day' and '+1 day' performs the same behavior, so it is natural to me that 'next Monday' and '+1 Monday' is the same meanings. In addition, my GNU date command never accept '+1 Monday' and 'next Monday' on Monday means the same day. So, I cannot tell what is the right behavior. I only report inconsistency. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php var_dump(date("Y-m-d",strtotime("+1 Monday 2008-12-01"))); var_dump(date("Y-m-d",strtotime("next Monday 2008-12-01"))); Actual result: -------------- string(10) "2008-12-01" string(10) "2008-12-08" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46932&edit=1
