Just thought that i would point out that in PHP 4 now is real now and
not GNU now so form a BC point of view i think now should be real now.

Hi derick,
Yes that is strange, What about adding an optional parameter to the
function to set toggle between real now and gnu now?
Something like:
int strtotime ( string time [, int now] [, bool gnu = false])

This is actually expected behavior because we follow the GNU guidelines
here, but I agree it's a weird thing to do. If nobody objects I'll make
"now" be really now during the rewrite of the strtotime() rewrite.

Im seeing the same thing on FreeBSD 5 with PHP5 rc2.
code:
<?php
$strtime = strtotime('now');
printf('
Now: %11s %s
Str time: %11s %s
'
, time()
, date('d M Y @ H:i:s ')
, $strtime
, date('d M Y @ H:i:s ', $strtime)
);
?>
Expected:
Now: 1084875653 18 May 2004 @ 11:20:53
Str time: 1084875653 18 May 2004 @ 11:20:53
Actual:
Now: 1084875653 18 May 2004 @ 11:20:53
Str time: 1084834800 18 May 2004 @ 00:00:00

Description:
------------
Simple script... doesn't matter how much time i run it -
strototime("now") produces same result for whole day. On next month day
it produces same result. Seems i didn't have any problem on RC1.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$str = "now";
$timestamp = strtotime($str);
echo "$str == " . date('l dS of F Y h:i:s A', $timestamp) . "<br
/>\n";
$timestamp = time();
echo "Good is " . date('l dS of F Y h:i:s A', $timestamp) . "<br
/>\n";
Expected result:
----------------
now == Wednesday 28th of April 2004 10:02:54 PM
Good is Wednesday 28th of April 2004 10:02:54 PM
Actual result:
--------------
now == Wednesday 28th of April 2004 12:00:00 AM
Good is Wednesday 28th of April 2004 10:02:54 PM
