Do it as a feature request at http://bugs.php.net/ and we'll look
into it. In related matters, I just approved a user note with a code
snippet example for sunrise and sunset.

Yeah, but unfortunately those places are sometimes rather
difficult to visit, which is rather unfortunate. I have four decades
worth of things to shove "where the sun don't shine," by order of
various folks.

By the way --- I realized moments after my previous reply that the
OP is actually the snippet submitter I mentioned in thread, and you
can see his work on the date_sun_info() function's manual page here:

http://php.net/date_sun_info

With a direct link to his submission here:
