note 114706 added to function.mktime

Be careful passing zeros into mktime, in most cases a zero will count as the previous unit of time. The documentation explains this yet most of the comments here still use zeroes. For example, if you pass the year 2013 into mktime, with zeroes for everything else, the outcome is probably not what you are looking for. <?php echo date('F jS, Y g:i:s a', mktime(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2013)); // November 30th, 2012 12:00:00 am ?> Instead of using 0's, try 1's. This makes more sense (except for minutes/seconds). Maybe not as obvious of a purpose as zeroes to other programmers, though. <?php echo date('F jS, Y g:i:s a', mktime(1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2013)); // January 1st, 2013 1:01:01 am ?> ---- Server IP: 192.41.45.150 Probable Submitter: 71.220.213.22 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.mktime.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/114706 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114706/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114706/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114706/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114706/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114706/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114706/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114706 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/114706 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
