PHP strtotime for June returns July

Question

I\'m stumped as to why the following PHP strtotime function returns \'07\' as the month number, rather than \'06\' when $monthToGet = \'June\':

$monthToGet =         


        

Answer 1

Today is 31 Jul. So a strtotime with only "June" is interpreted as 31 June => 1 July.

In fact:

echo date("Y-m-d",strtotime("January"));  // 2012-01-31
echo date("Y-m-d",strtotime("February")); // 2012-03-02

of course... only today 31 Jul 2012 :) Tomorrow all will works.

You're lucky because you found this bug just today ;)
