An important notice should be that PHP treats values starting with a zero as octal numbers (base 8. I remember someone asking a question about the fact that "March 08" came out as "March 00" = "February 28/29" (depending on the leap year). well, that's the cause. I'm not exactly sure what the behaviour for octal numbers is in strings, but you're best to avoid using the 2-digit versions of days, months, etc. in calculations. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
