[RESOLVED] Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered

[WebRuss]

Hello All

I've encountered another problem since upgrading to PHP 5.3.0

I get the following message:
Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered in C:\wamp\www\pos\reports\form.php on line 38

Some background:

$day=date("d");
$month=date("m");
$year=date("Y");
$today=date("Y-m-d").":".date("Y-m-d");

The offending line:

$alltime=date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,1,1,0000)).":".date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$today));

The part it seem to dislike is this:

date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$today))

I'm not sure what it is complaining about. What is wrong with this line of code?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards
Russ

My guess is that $month, $day, and/or $today has a non-numeric value. ($today looks a little suspicious, since that parameter should be a number representing a year.)

[WebRuss]

Yes that seems to be it.

$today which would output this: 2009-07-21:2009-07-21

date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$today));

The mktime is just looking for a 4 digit year in that parameter.

I changed the code to:

date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$year));

and all is well

Thanks for the nudge in the right direction!

i had the same problem .. i converted the parameters to string while passing to mktime(). the problem got solved for me.
