Re: Validate The Last Day of Month with server's clock????

Did a lot of searching on the internet and found a simple PHP code that does the trick. How the code work is when you pick a month where you want the last day to be in, then use the next month into the PHP script to get the last day of the month you're looking for. --snip-- //Want to see the last day of Febraury (Then insert the next month to find out). echo strftime("%d", mktime(0,0,0,3,0,2004)); --snip-- "Scott Fletcher" <scott@abcoa.com> wrote in message news:20030813191537.73824.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > Alright, interesting thought, never thought it would be possible.
