After struggling with using strtotime() to find the next Thursday, on two servers, one running PHP
5.2.5 and the other PHP 4.3.11, the order of words in the format string makes all the difference. On
10/03/2009, I got these results (2009-10-08 is the correct result):
+-----------------------------+------------+-------------+
| | 5.2.5 | 4.3.11 |
+-----------------------------+------------+-------------+
| strtotime('next thursday') | 2009-10-08 | 2009-10-15 |
+-----------------------------+------------+-------------+
| strtotime('thursday next') | 1969-12-31 | 2009-10-08 |
