Description:
------------
The script executes fine
the problem is that Elul IS NOT THE 13th Month in a non-Leap year
5775 is not a leap year
5776 is a leap year
I don't understand how Elul is the 13 month?
there are 12 months in a regular non-leap Jewish Year

In point of fact
to list the months in this order is both confusing and incorrect
the first month of the year in Jewish calendar is Nissan
the change of the year is in Tishri which makes Tishri the 7th Month and Adar the 12th month or Adar II the 13th month - which is logical since this month is added in a leap year!

Notice the output at 7? why is it repeated?

Test script:
---------------
for ($j = 1;$j<14;$j++) {
	echo $j.'. '.(iconv ('WINDOWS-1255', 'UTF-8', jdtojewish(jewishtojd($j,1,5775),true)));
	echo '<br />';
	
}
if (is_leap(5775)) { echo 'true' ;}
echo (5775 % 19);

Expected result:
----------------
1. א תשרי התשעה
2. א חשון התשעה
3. א כסלו התשעה
4. א טבת התשעה
5. א שבט התשעה
6. א אדר התשעה
7. א ניסן התשעה
8. א אייר התשעה
9. א סיון התשעה
10. א תמוז התשעה
11. א אב התשעה
12. א אלול התשעה


Actual result:
--------------
. א תשרי התשעה
2. א חשון התשעה
3. א כסלו התשעה
4. א טבת התשעה
5. א שבט התשעה
6. א אדר התשעה
7. א אדר התשעה
8. א ניסן התשעה
9. א אייר התשעה
10. א סיון התשעה
11. א תמוז התשעה
12. א אב התשעה
13. א אלול התשעה

Because that is how jewishtojd() is supposed to work. Months 6 and
7 are always Adar (the same month) in regular years, but Adar I
and Adar II in leap years.

Changing to documentation problem.
