Expected return value is false. This seems to be tripped by the first character being the letter 'a' or 'A' followed by a space followed by more text. Reproduce code: --------------- echo strtotime('Ask the Experts'); echo strtotime('A '); echo strtotime('A'); echo strtotime('a '); echo strtotime('a'); echo strtotime('A Revolution in Development'); echo strtotime('a nothing'); Expected result: ---------------- false false false false false false false Actual result: -------------- false false false false false current timestamp current timestamp ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41964&edit=1
