note 100632 added to function.strtotime

NOTE: strttotime returns wrong values (or guessed values) when the Week day does not macth the date. Simple example: <?php $d1 = strtotime("26 Oct 0010 12:00:00 +0100"); $d2 = strtotime("Tue, 26 Oct 0010 12:00:00 +0100"); $d3 = strtotime("Sun, 26 Oct 0010 12:00:00 +0100"); //But Oct 26 is a Tuesday, NOT a Sunday. echo $d1; //ok 1288090800 that is "26 Ott 2010 - 11:00"; echo $d2; //ok 1288090800 that is "26 Ott 2010 - 11:00"; echo $d3; //WRONG! 1288522800 that is "31 Ott 2010 - 11:00"; ?> Sometime I found RSS feeds that contains week days that do not match the date. A possible solution is to remove useless week day before passing the date string into strtime, example: <?php $date_string = "Sun, 26 Oct 0010 12:00:00 +0100"; if( ($comma_pos = strpos($date_string, ',')) !== FALSE ) $date_string = substr($date_string, $comma_pos + 1); $d3 = strtotime($date_string); ?> ---- Server IP: 81.88.49.35 Probable Submitter: 151.16.85.158 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/100632 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100632/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100632/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100632/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100632/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100632/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100632/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100632 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/100632 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
