I forgot to run this through in php4; the server this will be on only has php3, so I would have been out of luck anyway. :) I did figure out a pretty good solution (I think) using the mktime() function... what a wonderful little function. I break the YYYYMMDD string apart, add (or subtract) 1 from the day and put the result back into the date string via date("Ymd"). Seems to work well, though I don't know if the old was was more efficient or not (if this is slower, the extra 100th or a second doesn't bother me) :) Thanks again for the tip. I'll have to start bugging my server more to get PHP4 installed! Nick
