When I do that, the system saves the birthday as 12/31/1969. I tried 1901 with the same results but 1910 did work. I didn't test 1902-1909. thanks, Michael Fri, 16 Nov 2007 15:11:01 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/5893#t38659 If you use the default attributes.php you won't even be able to enter dates before 1900. If not, what did you change? Also, which PHP version, database and OS do you use?

Also, which PHP > version, database and OS do you use? I am not trying to enter dates BEFORE 1900 but ON 1900. I did add some fields to the attributes.php - so perhaps it is something I did. I've attached the file here if you're interested - but if dates of 1900 work in the HEAD then just let me know and I'll consider it a bug I created. I assumed this was a bug in the HEAD that no one has caught yet. BTW - I am running PHP 5.2.4+ on a Gentoo system on MySQL Sun, 18 Nov 2007 21:43:42 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/5893#t38720 >> If you use the default attributes.php you won't even be able to enter >> dates before 1900.

Also, they are being interpreted as 1/1/1970. This is with latest HEAD, MySQL 4.1.something, PHP 5.2.2, checked on various linux installs. Mon, 19 Nov 2007 01:37:34 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/5893#t38724 The common schema of these birthdays is that they are before 1970 on month with daylight saving time, and you are using PHP 4. Fixed in CVS. Wed, 21 Nov 2007 15:57:43 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/5893#t38856 Oops, wrong ticket. Wed, 21 Nov 2007 16:01:14 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/5893#t38859 This is actually a bug in the Date package, due to limitiations for strftime() and mktime() implementations not properly working with dates outside the unix epoch, resp. before 1901-12-13. This is partially fixed so that the dates can at least be saved now, if using the default birthday attribute. Displaying still doesn't work becase we use the %x specifier by default which is not implemented in my fixes yet. Note to myself: NLS::getLangInfo() provides the necessary information, at least on *nix systems.
