Re: Re: [PHP-DB] Date Subtraction

hi, hey you are bang on target. It did solve my problem. Thanks a lot, Manoj On Wed, 21 Aug 2002 Jeffrey_N_Dyke@Keane.com wrote :

if you really just want yesterday, i use date("Y-m-d", time() - 86400);

that way you'll get the correct info, no matter if it spans weeks, months,

years etc.... i realize there could be flaws with this b/c it just subtracts 24hours, but

it works....

hi, Is there any way I can get previous day's date, like we get current date by using getdate() or date() function. I mean is there some in-built function in PHP which can subtract date to give me yesterday's date. I am currently calculating it using some code, which I have written and it is very tirng and recursive to check for each possible case. If someone has solved this before pls let me know.
