Description
When creating a date in a specific timezone using a custom date string and format specifier, if the timezone contains underscore or dashes, the timezone is ignored.
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');
$customDateString = '2/9/2012 13:11:00 America/Los_Angeles';
$customFormat = 'd/M/yyyy H:m:s zzzz';
$date = new Zend_Date($customDateString, $customFormat);
echo $date->toString(Zend_Date::RFC_850) . PHP_EOL;
// Expected Result: Sunday, 02-Sep-12 13:11:00 America/Los_Angeles
// Actual Result: Sunday, 02-Sep-12 13:11:00 Europe/London
/**
* Workaround
*/
$date = new Zend_Date;
$date->setTimezone('America/Los_Angeles');
$date->set($customDateString, $customFormat);
echo $date->toString(Zend_Date::RFC_850) . PHP_EOL;
// Returns: Sunday, 02-Sep-12 13:11:00 America/Los_Angeles
When creating a date using any other timezone that matches /[:alpha:]/[:alpha:]/ there is no issue.
