Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-02 16:45:08] paul at stunning-stuff dot com Thanks for your quick reply and thanks for doing such a great job on PHP. You dev's really make this the best open source language today. I hope you are able to solve this problem (I'm sure you will). One more note though: This problem should reoccur every 28 years before and after 1992. This might help you in your testing.

'<br>'; ?> Expected result: Week number for Mon Dec 28, 1992 12:00:00: 53 Week number for Tue Dec 29, 1992 12:00:00: 53 Week number for Wed Dec 30, 1992 12:00:00: 53 Week number for Thu Dec 31, 1992 12:00:00: 53 Week number for Mon Dec 28, 2020 12:00:00: 53 Week number for Tue Dec 29, 2020 12:00:00: 53 Week number for Wed Dec 30, 2020 12:00:00: 53 Week number for Thu Dec 31, 2020 12:00:00: 53 Actual result: Week number for Mon Dec 28, 1992 12:00:00: 1 Week number for Tue Dec 29, 1992 12:00:00: 1 Week number for Wed Dec 30, 1992 12:00:00: 1 Week number for Thu Dec 31, 1992 12:00:00: 1 Week number for Mon Dec 28, 2020 12:00:00: 1 Week number for Tue Dec 29, 2020 12:00:00: 1 Week number for Wed Dec 30, 2020 12:00:00: 1 Week number for Thu Dec 31, 2020 12:00:00: 1 Check http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/custom.html?year=1992&month=12&typ=1&display=1&wno=1 and http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/custom.html?year=2020&month=12&typ=1&display=1&wno=1 to see these expected results confirmed. Sorry for the bulky post, but this way there is no room for misinterpretation. Thanks, Paul van der Maas --- www.stunning-stuff.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-02 03:27:51] paul at stunning-stuff dot com Description: ------------ Hi, While I was writing my own getWeekNumber method I discovered gmdate('W') and date('W') both return incorrect results for the year 1992 and 2020. Both years end on a thursday and both are leap years. I'm guessing that this is exactly the reason they return incorrect results :). Expected result: The last 4 days in 1992 and 2020 belong to week 53 of those years according to ISO 8601 rules. Actual result: gmdate('W') and date('W') think the last 4 days of 1992 and 2020 belong to week 1 of the following year. I only had the time to test these two years, but I expect that PHP will return the incorrect week number for every leap year that ends with a thursday.
