From: fsb at thefsb dot org Operating system: Mac 10.5.5 PHP version: 5.2.6 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: Inconsistent return values for strtotime('0000-00-00')
Description: ------------ strtotime('0000-00-00') returns int(-62169955200) in a script run by apache web server and bool(false) when run by the command line. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php var_dump(strtotime('0000-00-00')); ?> this script outputs int(-62169955200) to the web browser when run as a web page and bool(false) when run on the command line. Expected result: ---------------- i would expect the same result from running the function in the two contexts. regarding which result strtotime('0000-00-00') should return, i don't know. both answers seem reasonable to me. it would help if php documentation would specify the range of dates and unix timestamps that date and time functions can handle. Actual result: -------------- int(-62169955200) in the web page bool(false) in the command line -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46597&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46597&r=mysqlcfg
