Hey Rob,

Remember on 2007-09-18 at 22:45:37 when you suggested I do this:

Well.. today strtotime( 'last Sunday' ) screwed me and I'm writing to
say that I nearly fell out of my chair laughing when I realized what
the problem was, who caused it, and who "helped" me code it. :)

This issue only appears on an ancient PHP4 install as far as I can tell:

echo "Current time():\n";
echo date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', time() );
echo "\nBroken strtotime( 'last Sunday' )\n";
echo date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime( 'last Sunday' ) );
echo "\n";

/usr/local/php4/bin/php test.php
Current time():
2008-03-10 20:03:39
Broken strtotime( 'last Sunday' )
2008-03-08 23:00:00

23:00?  Guess what we did to out clocks this past weekend?

I blame the republicans in general, and the short one named 'W' specifically.

I won't bother mentioning the fix as I'm sure 83,293,874,713 people
will post the same correct code by the end of the day tomorrow.  No
one runs PHP4 except _my_ clients anyway.  *shrug*


Watch throwing that blame around there Greg, you get to thank the democrats for NAFTA and the hurting the heartlands including the one who's running now and controlled her man by the short hairs... well I guess Monica did that.. And she's pimping out her daughter... ;)

And yeah, the code is out there for all the daylight savings changes...  ;)
