Description:
------------
In earlier versions (5.0.4 tested) strtotime("080630") would work as if the input was formatted as "ymd". Tested in 5.2.6, it is formatted as "His".

Bug or not, it has changed and no documentation can be found?

PHP 5.2.6
php -r "echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('080630'));"
2008-05-28 08:06:30

PHP 5.0.4
php -r "echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('080630'));"
2008-06-30 00:00:00



Reproduce code:
---------------
php -r "echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('080630'));"

Expected result:
----------------
2008-06-30 00:00:00

Actual result:
--------------
2008-05-28 08:06:30

It's meant to work like in 5.2.6 - there is plenty of issues with the format, like you can see here:

# php-5.0.3  -r "echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime('081330'));"
2009-01-30 00:00:00

Having as output 2008-07-15 08:13:30 is quite more logically here. For other people, the above format could also mean "August 13, 2030" or something else. There is documentation, but it's in Latex (and thus not useful for inclusion in the PHP documentation) right now.

Please do not submit the same bug more than once. An existing
bug report already describes this very problem. Even if you feel
that your issue is somewhat different, the resolution is likely
to be the same. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Bug #36474.
