I found two things useful to know that aren't covered here. 1. endDate is excluded: <?php $i = new DateInterval('P1D'); $d1 = new Datetime(); $d2 = clone $d1; $d2->add($i); foreach(new DatePeriod($d1, $i, $d2) as $d) { echo $d->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; } ?> Will output: 2010-11-03 12:39:53 (Another one because I got it wrong at first) 2. For the first form, recurrences really means REcurrences, not occurences. <?php $i = new DateInterval('P1D'); $d = new Datetime(); foreach(new DatePeriod($d, $i, 1) as $d) { echo $d->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; } ?> Will output: 2010-11-03 12:41:05 2010-11-04 12:41:05 --was-- I found two things useful to know that aren't covered here. 1. endDate is excluded: $i = new DateInterval('P1D'); $d1 = new Datetime(); $d2 = clone $d1; $d2->add($i); foreach(new DatePeriod($d1, $i, $d2) as $d) { echo $d->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') .
