Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description:strtotime - last dayofweek of the month feature request
Description:
------------
I was attempting to strtotime to find the last (specific) day of the
month.
Example: Last Monday of May
But it returns false. I ended up taking a different approach but this would
have
been a nice feature.
Also tried: Last Monday April
Which did not return the results I was expecting.
Maybe we can get a little more documentation on this function and what
terms it
accepts? (If this exists, I was unable to find it)
Test script:
---------------
$f = "Y-m-d";$now = 1267571715; // 2010-03-02
echo "<pre>";
echo date($f, strtotime("last Monday",$now))."\n";
echo date($f, strtotime("last Monday in March",$now))."\n";
echo date($f, strtotime("last Monday of March",$now))."\n";
echo date($f, strtotime("last Monday April",$now))."\n";
echo date($f, strtotime("last Monday in April",$now))."\n";
echo date($f, strtotime("last Monday of April",$now))."\n";
echo "</pre>";
Expected result:
----------------
2010-03-01
2010-03-29
2010-03-29
2010-04-26
2010-04-26
2010-04-26
Actual result:
--------------
2010-03-01 (ok)
1969-12-31 (nothing returned)
1969-12-31 (nothing returned)
2010-03-29 (unexpected, but valid)
1969-12-31 (nothing returned)
1969-12-31 (nothing returned)
