ID: 60257 Comment by: it at ezy2c dot com Reported by: it at ezy2c dot com Summary: ZERO DATES IN STRTOTIME Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Date/time related Operating System: CENTOS 5 64 bit PHP Version: 5.3.8 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: After a search of the web I have uncovered that other users experience this in lots of 5+ versions of PHP on 64-bit *unix OS's. If its a 64 bit OS, strtotime should detect if its a ZERO date value (as mysql uses as default value etc) ie. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 and return the 1970 value as my Windows machine does. By the way my Windows Machine is a 64-Bit Windows 7 machine with XAMPP, and it returns a 1970 date. Please Fix this as we have a LOT of code that relies on strtotime's ability.
