Was trying to find a snippet to retrieve an ending date based on start date and term.
Could not find one so wrote this. Not 100% accurate but hope this helps someone.
<?php
$start_date = "2005-01-03";
$term = 36; // number of months
$start_date_pieces = split("-",$start_date);
$start_sec = mktime(0,0,0,
$start_date_pieces[1],
$start_date_pieces[2],
$start_date_pieces[0]);
// months in seconds term(number of months) * 30 days
// (in seconds)
$term_sec = $term * 2592000;
$end_date = date("Y-m-d", $term_sec + $start_sec);
// since each month is not always 30 days the end result
// gives a different ending day (of the month)
// we need to compensate and change the day of the month
// to the day the term starts
if ( substr($end_date,8,2) != $start_date_pieces[2] ){
$end_date_pieces = split("-",$end_date);
$end_date = $end_date_pieces[0].
"-".$end_date_pieces[1].
"-".$start_date_pieces[2];
}
?>
