[FX.php List] Even stranger date math...

[Troy Meyers]

Yeah, I think it's the end of DST. Offsetting your calc to noon seems to take care of it:

<?php

$d1 = "10/28/2007";
echo "$d1<br/>";
$d2 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + 86400 + 43200);
echo "$d2<br/>";
$d3 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (2*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d3<br/>";
$d4 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (3*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d4<br/>";
$d5 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (4*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d5<br/>";
$d6 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (5*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d6<br/>";
$d7 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (6*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d7<br/>";
$d8 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (7*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d8<br/>";
$d9 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (8*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d9<br/>";
$d10 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (9*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d10<br/>";
$d11 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (10*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d11<br/>";
$d12 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (11*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d12<br/>";
$d13 = date("m/d/Y", strtotime ($d1, 0) + (12*86400) + 43200);
echo "$d13<br/>";
echo "$d8---$d9";
?>
