Bug description: mktime does not work when DST kicks in
Description:
------------
Hello,
The following code
Code:
<?php
$n=date("w",mktime(0,0,0,3,29,2004));
echo "<pre>";
for($i=1;$i<32;$i++)
{
$d=date("D dS M Y",mktime(0,0,0,3,$i,2004));
$n=date("w",mktime(0,0,0,3,$i,2004));
echo $d,": day of week is $n<br />";
}
echo "</pre>";
?>
Outputs the details of March this year. Look at 28th March. It thinks it’s
the 27th! Now I know this is the change to daylight saving but mktime says
all should be well! However, if I change the hour to be 12 (right smack in
the middle) it gets the week day right (0 and not 6) but it still thinks
its Saturday. I'm in the UK and the clocks changed on this day.
