$tm = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$quarter = ceil(date("m", $tm)/3);
Your example doesn't make sense. The second parameter of date should be
a Unix
timestamp... date('Y-m-d H:i:s') returned a formatted date string. Use
time(),
mktime(), strtotime(), date("U"), or any number of the other functions
that
return a Unix timestamp to create your $tm variable...

$tm = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$quarter = ceil(date("m", $tm)/3);
echo '<br> Current Quarter Is: '.$quarter.' Because date is:'.date("m",
$tm).' Time is:'.$tm.' month is:'.date("m").'<br>';
####
Output Below shows that date("m", $tm) is producing wrong output, but
date("m") is producing correct output. The PHP version is
5.2.10-2ubuntu6.5 but I believe that does not matter as the bug reports
I have reviewed don't talk about this behavior.
####
Current Quarter Is: 4 Because date is:12 Time is:2011-02-06 15:25:00
month is:02
