Re: Re: date problem

From the documentation: http://ca2.php.net/manual/en/function.mktime.php "Date with year, month and day equal to zero is considered illegal (otherwise it what be regarded as 30.11.1999, which would be strange behavior)." I think the point here to think about is that the date(), time(), and mktime() functions all work with timestamps which happen to all function with respect to the Unix Epoch (January 1 1970) Cheers, Rob.
