Question one: When does Daylight Saving Time switch happen in your country aka. in whatever is configured on your system? Question two: have you at least *tried* mktime(12,0,0,... to have your calculations noon-based instead of midnight based? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-11 16:42:06] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ya ya, lets keep it closed now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-11 15:21:09] [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK - my apologies, I have wrapped up into one posting both a bug and a support issue. I will post on the support area, but, I do believe this is a bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-11 14:34:58] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. For a list of a range of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-11 14:28:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] $today_var = getdate(); $today_sec = mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y"),1); $offset = ($today_var['wday']-0) * 86400 ; $first_day = $today_sec - $offset; $this_week_first_date = date("ymd", $first_day); $path=$this_week_first_date; Still gives the wrong result.. Doesn't anybody have a reliable piece of code to Get the Sunday of the current week, this week it should be the 7th not the 6th! Now this week however this code works: date("ymd", mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy-date("w",mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy,$yr)),$yr)) What gives? A real piece of code that works reliably still needed for me and for sure everybody. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-11 12:59:47] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Guess it worked last week only due to the daylight saving switch which compensated an off-by-one error in your code. *Every* piece of code that uses mktime(0,0,0,...) and addition or subtraction of multiples of 86400 has to check for daylight saving time switches or use the optional 7th parameter to mktime() to be correct this database is full of user bugs related to this issue ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
