Well... it's just a small thing, but the documentation doesn't mention the return value of the strtotime() function. Ofcourse, if everything goes right, the function returns a timestamp. But the documentation doesn't mention the -1 return value on failure.
It's not all that weird ofcourse that it returns -1 io 0 on failure, but it seems to be not so obvious for that practised programmers.
