You should be testing the strtotime() call's return value, it returns
false on failure.
if (($timestamp = strtotime($str)) === false) {}
}
test_time('now');
test_time('4pm + 2 Hours');
test_time('now + 2 fortnights');
test_time('last Monday');
test_time('tomorrow');
test_time('5am tomorrow');
test_time('7am 12 days ago');
gives this output:
21:46:18 Wednesday, Jun 20
18:00:00 Wednesday, Jun 20
21:46:18 Wednesday, Jul 18
00:00:00 Monday, Jun 18
00:00:00 Thursday, Jun 21
00:00:00 Thursday, Jun 21
07:00:00 Friday, Jun 8
I'm wondering why the 2nd and 3rd last both give 00:00 as the
time. Especially why 5am tomorrow doesn't work. Using PHP5.
That false return value I mentioned above becomes a zero when used as
the second parameter to strftime().
