From: eclipsechasers2 at yahoo dot com Operating system: Windows PHP version: 5.2.11 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: date_sunrise off by several minutes
Description: ------------ Although sunset time agrees with many websites, sunrise time is off by several minutes, e.g.: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?n=224&month=3&year=2009&obj=sun&afl=-11&day=1 or http://www.sunrisesunset.com/custom_srss_calendar.asp This is a follow-on problem from bug 49558. PHP internal code in php_date.c was changed to: rs = timelib_astro_rise_set_altitude(t, longitude, latitude, altitude, calc_sunset?0:1, &h_rise, &h_set, &rise, &set, &transit) I believe that calc_sunset?0:1 in that expression should be 1 all the time in order to give correct results for both sunrise and sunset. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $gregyear = 2009; $gregmonth = 3; $gregday = 1; $location = "San Francisco"; $latitude = 37.787; $longitude = -122.447; $timezone = "America/Los_Angeles"; date_default_timezone_set($timezone); $gregmonthname = JDMonthName(cal_to_jd(CAL_GREGORIAN,$gregmonth,1,2000),1); $jd = gregoriantojd($gregmonth, $gregday, $gregyear); $weekday = jddayofweek($jd,0); echo "<b>$gregyear $gregmonthname $dd - " . jddayofweek($jd,1) . " - "; echo "Latitude $latitude Longitude $longitude Time Zone $timezone Location $location</b>\n"; for ($i = 0; $i <= 30; $i++) { list($m11,$d11,$y11) = split('/',jdtogregorian($jd + $i)); if ($m11 < 10) $m11 = "0" . $m11; if ($d11 < 10) $d11 = "0" . $d11; $ts = $y11 .
