Ya - the other server is 4.4.7 However - this does not seem to be the problem necessarily: print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next saturday")); 02/09/2008 print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next sunday")); 02/10/2008 print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next monday")); 02/11/2008 print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next tuesday")); 02/12/2008 print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next wednesday")); 02/13/2008 print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next thursday")); 02/07/2008 So from today to next Thursday, the dates are all 1 week off....?
