RE: [PHP] adding days to a given date

The time function available in PHP can be used for your requirement/ $two_days_later = date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day+2,$year)); where $month, $day and $year are the respective parts of the given day $year=2004 $month=04 $day=29 You can specify the number of days to be "+/-" in the mktime function, like its specified above. You can also "+/-" the months and year if necessary. regards Harish -----Original Message----- From: Merlin [mailto:news.groups@web.de] Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 2004 2:31 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] adding days to a given date Hi there, I am trying to add days to a given day, but somehow I am lost in all the time functions.
