Your an angel. A quick call to checkdate() to verify the input might be all that's needed? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-29 08:36:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ok, I changed my mind and think this would be solved by fixing the function instead. Because there is a Bug #18101 in which sniper promised that I would rewrite it, I'm marking this one as duplicate of that bug 18101. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-29 03:46:14] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The docs for strtotime contain a code snippet that is supposed to catch invalid dates. It fails in this example where $str is set to "1970-1-222" and invalid date. $str = "1970-1-222"; if (($timestamp = strtotime($str)) === -1) { echo "The string ($str) is bogus"; } else { echo "$str == ". date('l dS of F Y h:i:s A',$timestamp); } The output is: 1970-1-222 == Monday 10th of August 1970 12:00:00 AM Whereas is should say that 1970-1-222 is a bogus date.
