From: r07271368 at hotmail dot com Operating system: testbed at tehplayground.com PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Calendar related Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:cal_from_jd numbering for Jewish months is not explained Description: ------------ The numbering that cal_from_jd uses for Jewish months is not explained in the documentation. Apparently, the first six months of the Jewish year (counting from Tishri) are numbered 1 to 6; the last six months are numbered 8 to 13; and 7 appears as a month number only if the year has 13 months total. If the year is 12 months in length, then the number 7 is skipped in the month numbering. Also, the name "AdarI" is used for Adar in all years, not just years with 13 months. Test script: --------------- $n = 2456150; for ($i=1; $i<=150; $i++) { $a = cal_from_jd($n, CAL_GREGORIAN); $b = cal_from_jd($n, CAL_JEWISH); echo $a['date']." "; echo $b['date']." "; echo $b['monthname']."\n"; $n+=15; } Expected result: ---------------- The script shows Gregorian and corresponding Jewish dates at 15-day intervals. A Jewish month is either 29 or 30 days. Therefore, the interval is too short to skip over any months. Actual result: -------------- Please observe the sequence of month names and month numbers returned by the script. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63932&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63932&r=mysqlcfg
