Description:
------------
This example was taken straight from the DateTime::createFromFormat page
at:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.createfromformat.php
After performing a DateTime::createFromFormat, the variable assigned
doesn't seem to work. HOWEVER, the variable assigned DOES seem to work
after being used in a print_r function.
Please look at the test script and output. What am I doing wrong?
Condensed Code Snippet:
=======================
$format = 'Y-m-d';
$dt = DateTime::createFromFormat($format, '2009-02-03');
echo "<br>Format: $format; " . $dt->date . " (Should print \"2009-02-03
[time]\")<br>";
print_r($dt);
echo "<br>Format: $format; " . $dt->date . " (Should print \"2009-02-03
[time]\")<br>";
Output:
=======
Format: Y-m-d; (Should print "2009-02-03 [time]")
DateTime Object ( [date] => 2009-02-03 06:23:24 [timezone_type] => 3
[timezone] => America/New_York )
Format: Y-m-d; 2009-02-03 06:23:24 (Should print "2009-02-03 [time]")

Expected result:
----------------
Format: Y-m-d; 2009-02-03 06:23:24 (Should print "2009-02-03 [time]")
Actual result:
--------------
Format: Y-m-d; (Should print "2009-02-03 [time]")
