Somehow strtotime(Œyesterday¹) doesn¹t work. > If I put strtotime(Œ-2 days¹) or strtotime(Œ-7 days¹) or even > strtotime(Œ8:00am¹)... They all work accordingly. How come (Œyesterday¹) > isn¹t working? It doesn¹t delete anything. Maybe strtotime('-1 day') would work. [shrug] You could also use http://php.net/mktime mktime(date('m'), -1); //This should be 24 hours before 'now', I think... Or maybe mktime(date('m'), date('d) -1); Whichever it is, PHP's mktime does the right thing even if you use, like: mktime(6, 0); //This is really May 31st, not June 0.
