RE: [PHP] date add more 7 days, help needed.

hehe ... here I am again: mySQL? if yes then do date+INTERVAL 8 DAYS. PHP? then convert everything into UNIX timestamp with mktime() and do a plus of (60*60*24 for each day) and then reconvert it back into the time format you want.

Hi all I have variable that store date like this : $First = "$year" . "$month" . "$date"; ( which return 20010201 for Feb 1,2001) . I wanna do the loop 8 times that will add 7 more days to the begining date and keep adding it for 8 times. The looping thing is okay but I am not sure if I simply plus 7 on top of date value will give me the date value I want to have. I try the sniplet below and it did not work, always return zero. What should I do here??? ************** $First = "$year" . "$month" . "$date"; for ($i=1; $i < 9 ; ++$i){ $First = $First + 7 ; } ******************* cheers Jack jacky@activelifestyle.com "There is nothing more rewarding than reaching the goal you set for yourself"
