We are happy to tell you that you just discovered Daylight Savings
Time. For more information see:
http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/b.html
Instead of using mktime/date consider using gmmktime and gmdate which
do
not suffer from DST.

Try this script instead, that also shows the time to see what's
happening:

<?php
$day=date("j");
$mo=date("n");
$year=date("Y");

for($i=6; $i>=0; $i--)
{
        $a=mktime(0, 0, 0, $mo,$day, $year);
        $b=date("r",$a);
        $c=strtotime($b. "-" . $i . " day");
        $curdate=date("Ymd His",$c);

        $d=date("r");
        $e=strtotime($d. "-" . $i . " day");
        $curdate2=date("Ymd His",$e);
        echo
"\n|".$b."=".$d."|".$c."=".$e."|".$curdate."=".$curdate2."|";

}
?>

Description:
------------
It seems that the date() function "jumps over" sundays when converting
timestamps not referring to midnight.
Similar to #461


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$day=date("j");
$mo=date("n");
$year=date("Y");

for($i=6; $i>=0; $i--)
{
        $a=mktime(0, 0, 0, $mo,$day, $year);
        $b=date("r",$a);
        $c=strtotime($b. "-" . $i . " day");
        $curdate=date("Ymd",$c);

        $d=date("r");
        $e=strtotime($d. "-" . $i . " day");
        $curdate2=date("Ymd",$e);
        echo
"\n|".$b."=".$d."|".$c."=".$e."|".$curdate."=".$curdate2."|";

}
?>

Expected result:
----------------
I expect this script to return the right "Ymd" dates of the last seven
days.

Actual result:
--------------
It works:
|Wed, 28 Mar 2007 00:00:00 +0200=Wed, 28 Mar 2007 17:13:37
+0200|1175032800=1175094817|20070328!=20070328|
but when it finds a sunday, dates are shifted off of 1 day:
|Wed, 28 Mar 2007 00:00:00 +0200=Wed, 28 Mar 2007 17:13:37
+0200|1174773600=1174835617|20070324!=20070325|
