From: ebrueggeman at gmail dot com Operating system: Windows PHP version: 5.2.4 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: Daylight Savings Time Related Problem with Date()
Description: ------------ The date() function is not accurately displaying output expected of dates during the 1 week long time before daylight savings time, likely because of the change in the start of daylight savings time from the year prior. Reproduce code: --------------- date_default_timezone_set ("America/New_York"); $receiptStamp=mktime(0, 0, 0, 10, 31, 2007); $modStamp= $receiptStamp + (5 * 24 * 60 * 60); /* Addition of 5 days of time */ echo date('m/d/Y', $modStamp) . '<br>'; /* prints 11/04/2007 */ $dateObject=new DateTime("10/31/2007"); $dateObject->modify("+5 day"); echo date_format( $dateObject, 'm/d/Y' ). '<br>'; /* prints 11/05/2007 */ /*After the old daylight savings crossover week*/ $dateObject=new DateTime("11/7/2007"); $dateObject->modify("+5 day"); echo date_format( $dateObject, 'm/d/Y' ). '<br>'; /* prints 11/12/2007 */ $receiptStamp=mktime(0, 0, 0, 11, 7, 2007); $modStamp= $receiptStamp + (5 * 24 * 60 * 60); /* Addition of 5 days of time */ echo date('m/d/Y', $modStamp). '<br>'; Expected result: ---------------- 11/05/2007 11/05/2007 11/12/2007 11/12/2007 Actual result: -------------- 11/04/2007 11/05/2007 11/12/2007 11/12/2007 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=43188&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43188&r=mysqlcfg
