I mean, it's practically trying to solve an NLP (Natural Language Processing) problem, which AI researchers have spent decades and billions trying to "solve" and they are not exactly getting the (impossible) job done... So I never rely on strtotime(), and use something simple like basic arithmetic to compute days. It takes out all the ambiguity since Saturday is always day 6 and adding 7 always ends up on another Saturday. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
