I'd at least like to see a note of this appear in strftime()'s documentation.exactly Reproduce code: --------------- strftime(str_repeat('a', 1024), time()) Expected result: ---------------- str_repeat('a', 1024) Actual result: -------------- '' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42713&edit=1
