date() problem

Hi,

I tried to use the date() function with the mktime(). It keeps giving warning:

Warning: date(): Windows does not support dates prior to midnight (00:00:00), January 1, 1970

I could use the @ to surpress the warning but I would like to know why it's happening. Take a look at this. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.
PHP Code:
<?
$timestamp 
mktime(0,0,0,5,15,1980);
$mth date("n"strtotime($timestamp));
$day date("j"strtotime($timestamp));
$yr date("Y"strtotime($timestamp));
echo 
"$mth $day $yr";
?>


Thank you

Why are you using strtotime() around the timestamp when it's being fed to date()? It's already a timestamp... From the manual entry for strtotime:

Quote:
The function expects to be given a string containing an English date format and will try to parse that format into a UNIX timestamp relative to the timestamp given in now, or the current time if none is supplied.


echo date("n j Y", $timestamp);

Should do the job. I would echo out $timestamp first to check what sort of value you're feeding to date().
