Note Submitter: andrew dot myers at civicwifi dot com ---- If the second parameter is non-numeric, then PHP 5 will return FALSE, but PHP 4 will treat it as a 0 and return the Unix Epoch for your timezone. Also, beware the difference between the return values of strtotime() in PHP 5 vs. PHP 4. <?php $from_empty = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", ""); var_dump($from_empty); // PHP 5 >>> Warning: date() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given... // bool(false) // PHP 4 >>> string(19) "1969-12-31 18:00:00" $from_bogus = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", "bogus"); var_dump($from_bogus); // PHP 5 >>> Warning: date() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given... // bool(false) //PHP 4 >>> string(19) "1969-12-31 18:00:00" $from_bad_strtotime = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime("Oops, bad data")); var_dump($from_bad_strtotime); // PHP 5 >>> string(19) "1969-12-31 18:00:00" // PHP 4 >>> string(19) "1969-12-31 17:59:59" ?>
