Let PHP do it for you, and it will be correct. Every time. $threemonths = mktim(0, 0, 0, date("m") + 3); ACTUALLY, it would be even EASIER to use SQL to do this. Presumably MySQL will let you use things not unlike... where registation_date + '3 months' <= now() You're probably better off storing a registration_date and an interval than the deadline. Then, if you decide to extend everybody's 3 month freebie to 4 months, it's easy. -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out? Like Music?
