A note that might save some people some time:
This note on this page about DateTime object not being available unless you have PHP 5.2.0 or
greater ONLY applies to SOME of the functions listed in the function list section of this manual.
The DateTime is a new OO-based approach to date manipulation, but the old methods such as
strtotime() and date() have been there for ages and still get the job done.
To new users a "This not available until 5.2.0" note on the "Installation" page
for this section seems to imply that ALL the functionality of this section is not available until
5.2.0.
Maybe we should put a note on each of the "new" functionality pages that says. "This
is new as of 5.2.0, and effectively replaces X and Y legacy functions". Just a thought.
