Status: Won't fix
Bug Type: Date/time related
Operating System: WinNT5.0
PHP Version: 4.2.0
New Comment:
The problem still occurs with 4.2.3: mktime(0,0,0,09,23,1967) returns
-1 instead of a valid timestamp.

Since the time stamp is started from 1970, I don't think it supposed to
work in anyways.
Or is there anything wrong is returned when too small/large date is
supplied? It should fail, but it should not crash PHP for example.
Please reopen if PHP behaves badly.
BTW, there should be feature requests for more generic date functions
so no need for feature request also.

I have 4.0.6 on several machines (3 I think), and I have the same
problem on all of them (I have Windows 2000 on all of them). As much
as I want to convert my server to a linux box, it still leaves me two
computers with Windows 2000 and this bug. I had one idea, but since I
don't have 4.2.0 I can't work on it yet. With the new W32 API
capabilities of 4.2.0, would it not be possible to use some Windows API
functions to parse date/time information rather than the included PHP
functions? Obviously, Windows can handle the dates. I use JavaScript
a lot and it has a range of approximately 275,000 years before and
after 1970. I tested my valid range yesterday using the PHP functions,
I could go from 1970 to about 2037. Wow. What about all the people
that were born before 1970? Older than 32 years...
Anyway, when I get home I will download 4.2.0 and then start hacking
away at using the PROPER Windows API functions for date/time since PHP
seems to be wanting to use the ones that don't work.
Hope something gets figured out, even if I have to program my own DLL
to make it work... :)
