New Comment:
I've been using strtotime() to calculate relative shifts in time, ie.
$real_now = strtotime("2004-07-15 00:16:35");
$exactly_one_day_ago = strtotime("-1 day", $real_now);
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $exactly_one_day_ago)
Expecting "2004-07-14 00:16:35"
but getting: "2004-07-14 00:00:00"
I'm sure there's a way around this, but I'm really not that bright...
so I had to jump back to php4 for the time being.
So I also think that the "now" parameter should be real now, not GNU
"now".

Will this bug be fixed before the final php5 release?
A lot of code will need rewriting before php5 is released if "now" is
going to changed.
Wouldn't it be better to have
today = Monday 12th of July 2004 12:00:00 AM
now = Monday 12th of July 2004 08:49:23 PM

The functionality is maintained in RC3.
I needs the realtime for logging of process. My workaround is to do
this:
$str=date('d F Y h:i:s A');
$timestamp = strtotime("$str");

So how would one, for example, use strtotime() to get the current time
+ 10 mins?

That's feasible for the rewrite, but for the current parser.

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.
