Ahh, you're right! I had a rogue: $date = date("m-d-Y", filemtime($fn)); in there. :) Thought I got rid of all of those in testing... my organization has a standard date format and it must be dashes instead of slashes, and of course it has to be month, day, year! Jason Wong wrote:

Well I gradually figured out that the date format output by filemtime() was not an acceptable natural language date format. filemtime() was fetching dates with a dash - ex. 07-08-2003. strtotime() was making incorrect timestamps because it doesn't read dates with dashes formatted that way.
What version of PHP are you using? And what exactly is the code that you're using? filemtime() returns a _unix timestamp_ and will asort() as is.
