strange problem in gmdate function

[transfusionsys]

hello,

i have a strange problem in the gmdate function.

When i execute the following :

<?
print(gmdate("M", mktime(0,0,0,1,0,2001)));
?>

it displays the Month as December, actually it should be January.

Any clues?

Thanks in advance.

i think it's getting cofused by your referring to the "0th of january", which it might be interpreting as the 31st December.

Try print(gmdate("M", mktime(0,0,0,1,1,2001)));

from the manual:

The last day of any given month can be expressed as the "0" day of the next month, not the -1 day. Both of the following examples will produce the string "The last day in Feb 2000 is: 29".
