Doc #46712 [Csd]: strftime : %p tag does "AM/PM" and not "am/pm"

Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=46712&edit=1 ID: 46712 Updated by: rquadling@php.net Reported by: evaisse at gmail dot com Summary: strftime : %p tag does "AM/PM" and not "am/pm" Status: Closed Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem Operating System: ubuntu/linux PHP Version: Irrelevant -Assigned To: +Assigned To: rquadling Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Can you run the example at http://docs.php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php#example-637. This will show you all the formats that your operating system can provide and the current values. I'm on Windows and I've tested V5.0.0 to V5.3.5 (77 versions including alpha and RCs). %P is not supported and %p is always uppercase AM or PM. You may find your OS reports something different. Take careful notice of http://docs.php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php#refsect1-function.strftime- errors. The output is OS dependent.

Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-28 16:51:09] evaisse at gmail dot com Description: ------------ doc say : %p - either am' or pm' according to the given time value, or the corresponding strings for the current locale Must be corrected said in the comments : %p - either AM' or PM' according to the given time value, or the corresponding strings for the current locale (note result is in capitals) %P - either am' or pm' according to the given time value, or the corresponding strings for the current locale (note result is in lower case) Very vicious bug by the way. Reproduce code: --------------- print strftime('%p',time()); // time before 12, must print 'am' Expected result: ---------------- am Actual result: -------------- AM ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=46712&edit=1
