echo date("W",strtotime('2010-01-01'));

This outputs 53. I would expect it to output 1. Can anyone else confirm this behavior, or maybe explain why? I couldn’t find a bug report on it.

    This isn’t a bug at all, it’s expected behaviour. From PHP’s Date Page:

    W: ISO-8601 week number of year, weeks starting on Monday

    Jan 1, 2010, fell on a Friday, so its week number would belong to 2009, making it part of the 53rd week of 2009. Jan 4, 2010 would be week 1.
