Doing this:
<?php
$stamp = strtotime("last Friday", gmmktime(0,0,0,11+1,0,2007));
echo date("m/d/Y", $stamp)."<br>";
$stamp = strtotime("last Friday", gmmktime(0,0,0,8+1,0,2007));
echo date("m/d/Y", $stamp);
?>
Expected Value:
11/30/2007
08/31/2007
Actual Value
11/23/2007
08/24/2007
That should make more sense.
Again this seems to happen when the last day of the month is the last
Friday that we're looking for, then it returns the previous Friday.

Yes, most of the time it is correct, but I've found if the day wanted
is the last day of the month, it may not work correctly. Friday was an
example, it probably has nothing to do with Friday specifically, that's
just what I tested and found the problem.
