Hi,

running on a webserver of our client: Windows 2000, IIS 5, PHP 4.2.2. The command strftime("%R", $timestamp) doesn't display the time as specified in the docs (hh:mm in 24 hours notation), while this does work on our test webserver which is a Linux, Apache, PHP-machine. Substituting this by strftime("%H:%M", $timestamp) does work correctly and has the same result.

Thanks,
Jonathan

From the manual page php.net/strftime:

Note:  Not all conversion specifiers may be supported by your C library, in which case they will not be supported by PHP's strftime(). This means that e.g. %e, %T and %D (there might be more) will not work on Windows. 

apperently %R isn't supported either -> doc problem.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
