Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53798&edit=1 ID: 53798 User updated by: matteosistisette at gmail dot com Reported by: matteosistisette at gmail dot com Summary: specify range for month and day in mktime Status: Bogus Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Well that's exactly what should be specified in the documentation, or more simply: Month: number of the month (1 through 12) just like it is documented for the date() function Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-20 11:46:49] rquadling@php.net The day, month and year values supplied are not indexes or offsets, so "0-based" is not relevant. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-20 11:41:10] matteosistisette at gmail dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.mktime --- Documentation says about the "month" parameter: "month The number of the month. " It should specify that this is 1-based, i.e. January is 1 and December is 12. This is not obvious, as some languages use 0-based indexes (i.e. 0 for january and 11 for december) To be rigorous, the same holds for days, thought I guess it is more obvious that the first day of the month is counted as 1 and not 0 so this may not be necessary, thought it wouldn't hurt. Anyway for the number of the month it is absolutely vital to specify it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53798&edit=1
