[TriLUG] OT?: php anomaly

[stan briggs]

DJ,

and the mystery continues. note that in the code below (that adds the time
to the printed to the output) that on 10-29 it only adds 23 hours to the
day. yet, prior to and after that it adds exactly 24 hours.

now, i'm even more befuddled.

DJ,

did you notice that this code (which is better than what i had, BTW) repeats
10-29? what the heck is up with that?

and if you change it to last year (2005) it repeats 10-30.

anyone?

I think having string values in the where{} loop is what is doing you in.
Try this:


<?
$CurrentDate = strtotime("2006-10-24");
$EndDate     = strtotime("2006-11-15");
while ( $CurrentDate <= $EndDate ) {
       $ShortDate  = date("m-d"  , $CurrentDate);
       $MySQL4date = date("Y-m-d", $CurrentDate);
       $LongDate   = date("Y-m-d=H:i:s", $CurrentDate);
       echo $LongDate . '(' . $CurrentDate . ')[' . $MySQL4date . "]\n";
       $CurrentDate += 86400 ;
}
?>


Cheers,
DJ
