[PHP-DEV] Bug #13288: date() works incorrectly for first week of April 2001 From: SeanECoates <email protected>

Bug description: date() works incorrectly for first week of April 2001

I hope I haven't overlooked something (again), but this just popped up, and
is hurting my current application, big-time.

PHP is reporting certain timestamps as the wrong date (specifically, I've
found the first week of April 2001 the be erraneous). I noticed that MySQL
was converting a specific set of timestamps to dates differently than my
php app. So, I tested against perl as well, and PHP is definitely doing
SOMETHING weird..

Here are the results:

[mysql]
SELECT 986184000 AS unix_time,
       FROM_UNIXTIME(986184000) AS date_stamp,
       UNIX_TIMESTAMP('2001-04-01 23:00:00') AS unix_time
--> unix_time=98618400, date_stamp='2001-04-01 23:00:00',
unix_time=98618400

[php]
sean <email protected>:~$ echo '<?php $date_stamp=986184000; echo $date_stamp ." = ".
date("M d, Y, H:i:s A",$date_stamp) ."\n" ?>' | php -q
986184000 = Apr 01, 2001, 23:00:00 PM

[perl]
sean <email protected>:~$ perl -MPOSIX -le 'print ctime(986184000)'
Sun Apr 1 23:00:00 2001

Again, I'm really sorry to waste your collective time if this is my
mistake.
