Mktime() uses the current (local date/time) value for any parameters that you leave out. Since you were running this on July 31st, that means your mktime call was trying to build timestamps for February 31st (which is actually in March), April 31st (actually in May), and so on. --- Mark Roedel (roedelm@letu.edu) || "There cannot be a crisis next week.
