Re: Strtotime returns 02/09/2008 for "next Saturday"....

Ya - the other server is 4.4.7

However - this does not seem to be the problem necessarily:

print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next saturday"));
02/09/2008

print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next sunday"));
02/10/2008

print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next monday"));
02/11/2008

print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next tuesday"));
02/12/2008

print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next wednesday"));
02/13/2008

print date("m/d/Y",strtotime("next thursday"));
02/07/2008

So from today to next Thursday, the dates are all 1 week off....?
