I.e. is this a linear / quadratic / etc. fucntion... one where you can start with one known value (Jan. 1 1970) and build all dates relative to this date instead? If you just want days since 0 BC / AD you can recreate all of the PHP date functions yourself... but use a "daystamp" from 0 BC/AD instead of a "timestamp" from 1970. Or fudge things a little and use 365.25 days per year... -- Teach a man to fish...
