RE: [PHP-INSTALL] December 31, 2004

I apologize. Lousy coding there.... I now realise that I need to convert the dates with mktime before I compare them... Doh!! -----Original Message----- From: Tom Haddon [mailto:thaddon@equilar.com] Sent: Monday, January 03, 2005 4:34 PM To: php-install@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-INSTALL] December 31, 2004 Hi Folks, I'm experiencing a strange issue with dates for December 31, 2004. Here's the script: <?php $startdate="12/30/2004"; $enddate="12/30/2004"; $dates=array(); $orig=$startdate; do { array_push($dates,$startdate); $startdate=date("m/d/Y",strtotime("+1 day",mktime(0,0,0,substr($startdate,0,2),substr($startdate,3,2),substr($startdate,6,4)))); } while($startdate<=$enddate); print_r($dates); ?> If I use the start and end dates as above, everything's great - the $dates array holds one value, "12/30/2004". But if I change both the start and end date to "12/31/2004" everything goes awry - I now get an array holding values from "12/31/2004" to "12/30/2005" - 364 in total!?!?! Any suggestions. Why is "12/31/2004" such a problem?
