Re: [PHP] strtotime

2010-01-14 Thread Adam Richardson
When you set the date to -00-00, you start the following sequence: 1. strtotime returns false, because -00-00 isn't a date it can parse into a timestamp. 2. date returns 1969, because it's not passed a valid timestamp and it works from December 31, 1969 for any invalid date.
