For some reason all dates early 1 Jan 1970 shown incorrect.

For example I have next code:
Code:
{$birthDay|date_format}

if $birthDay date more then 1 Jan 1970 everything works fine but if early I recieve 1 Jan 1970 as output.

I found that PHP function strtotime used for date validation and it's return "-1"

Does anybody know what I should do?

Thanks in advance.

date_format uses strftime which has this limitation (and I think date has it too). It wouldn't be too difficult to create a function that uses Date_Calc from PEAR, or extend date_format to use it.

From the php manual: http://de2.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php

Quote:
Note: The valid range of a timestamp is typically from Fri, 13 Dec 1901 20:45:54 GMT to Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07 GMT. (These are the dates that correspond to the minimum and maximum values for a 32-bit signed integer.) Additionally, not all platforms support negative timestamps, therefore your date range may be limited to no earlier than the Unix epoch. This means that e.g. dates prior to Jan 1, 1970 will not work on Windows, some Linux distributions, and a few other operating systems.
