Guys, the line below just returned "Dec 07" as the date for one month

Interesting. Looks like it may be a bug.


Nope,
date('m')-1 = 11
date('d') = 31

31-11-2007 = 01-12-2007 as far as php is concerned.

Not 'end of a year' bug, but '31st of every month' bug (well, feature I'd say, I know what to expect), with a few bonus dates in march.

Ah, yes. Now I remember why I don't do it this way - it's been so long I forgot.
