Description:
------------
Dont know if corrected in new versions but I cant actually upgrade so I write it here anyway to be sure its reported.

Strtotime/date fails to get the date in a simple test.

I think I found a bug:

echo date("Y-m-d",strtotime('2011-10-30')+86400);
//returns 2011-10-30 and should return 2011-10-31

echo date("Y-m-d",strtotime('2011-10-30')+86400);

Expected result:

Actual result:
--------------
2011-10-30

I can't reproduce this with PHP_5_3 HEAD.

Could you please check that your "date.timezone" is set correctly in your php.ini?

It could help to compare "Y-m-d H:i:s" output.

CONTENT OF STRTO.PHP:
<?php
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Madrid');
echo date('Y-m-d',strtotime('2011-10-30')+86400);
?>

Thanks for helping me

We are happy to tell you that you just discovered Daylight Savings
Time. For more information see:
http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/b.html
Instead of using mktime/date consider using gmmktime and gmdate which do
not suffer from DST.

You do realize that there are indeed 24h between 2011-10-30 00:00:00 and 2011-10-30 23:00:00, right?

This is when DST was adjusted.

Try your code with 2011-10-31 and you'll see 2011-11-01 as a result of adding 24h.

You are totally right. My fault, sorry for the noise.
