Assigned to the author of this part. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-14 18:28:03] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Description: ------------ A number of mail clients or mail generating scripts generate Date: headers that use the following format: Sun, 13 Nov 2005 22:56:10 -0800 (PST) The final part - " (PST)" is not required (and probably technically invalid) by the date format described in RFC 2822, however, it's also probably valid as a header comment. Prior to the 5.1 branch, PHP's strtotime simply ignored comments in this style; however, with 5.1, it causes strtotime to fail and return false. Valid or invalid I think it'd be good for PHP to ignore these and just parse the rest of the date. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $date = 'Sun, 13 Nov 2005 22:56:10 -0800 (PST)'; $date_fixed = 'Sun, 13 Nov 2005 22:56:10 -0800'; var_dump(strtotime($date)); var_dump(strtotime($date_fixed)); Expected result: ---------------- int(1131951370) int(1131951370) Actual result: -------------- bool(false) int(1131951370) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35218&edit=1
