Description:
------------
Hi,
we switched from PHP 4.2.3 to PHP 4.3.4. The code
    date("Y-m-d",strtotime("next wednesday")) 
that yields the correct date as with 4.2.3 now gives
the date one week further.
Example: today is 2004-01-16; next Wednesday is 2004-01-21, however the above given code results in 2004-01-28.

Good luck.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

In 4.3.0:

"- Brought strtotime() "next" keyword handling in line with documentation and its glibc cousin. (Rasmus)"

Well, you're right: the new behaviour is like the doc says.
Since it is different from before and since I didn't find the change comment in the manual I missed that goal.
Thank you and have a nice day.
