Found it useful to do some quick calculations on a date by doing something like this. $var = date('F d, Y', strtotime("-1 month -4 days")); This quickly returns something like this: February 28, 2011 But, it will return the date that was one month and four days from the current date. Easy to get calculations based on that especially in cases where there are not 31 days in a month. Brian S.
