Add Days To A Date In The Past.
I'm trying to add days to a date in the past. I know this adds 30 days to today's date:
PHP Code:

$newdate = (date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+ 30 days')));

But let's say I have a date variable: PHP Code:

$pastdate = ��-05-06'

Calculate The Number Of Days Between A Given Date And The End Of The Month.
I was hoping someone can help me with a date calculation. I'm trying to calculate the number of days between a given date and the end of the month. I have a form with three drop down boxes: month, day and year.

A user will submit a date using these drop down boxes. Based on their submission, I need to determine the number of days to the end of the month from the date which was submitted.

For example, if the person submits March 15, 2007 and the last day of the month of March is March 31, 2007. The number of days between the 15th and the last day of the month is 17.

How do I begin programming this calculation? Since the last day of the month differs from month to month (28th, 30th or 31st) I cannot figure out how to determine the last day of a given month.

SQL - Selecting All Records From Past 30 Days...
How do I only display records solely from the past 30 days with an SQL query, using the 'date' field in my database? The column in the table is called 'date' and uses date type :

date date No 0000-00-00

I have tried :

DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 30 DAY)

but to no avail.

Calculate Days Worked
I have a set date in my MySQL database that records when a Sales Lead
is established and I echo that date as $row_rsLead['lead_date'];

I need to be able to calculate how many days that lead has existed.
$row_rsLead['lead_date']; outputs as 2007-06-14.

I have made numerous attempts to create a function that will calculate
the days between the lead_date and today's date, but have made
absolutely no headway. I am either stuck working between differing
date formats or really strange numerical outputs.

If there is a script someone is willing to share or point me in a
direction that is good for a relative newcomer to PHP,

Calculate Number Of Days Between Two Dates
I have people posting ads and when the ad is posted I have two fields populated at that time:

date_created
date_expired

With the date expired being 7 days after the date created. Both are in this format: 03/12/07

What I am doing is preventing someone from posting more than one ad per 7 days. I'm validating against their email address for that. But I want to display the date that they would be eligible as well as determine if they are eligible to post or not which would require comparing today's date with probably using the now() function against the date_expired in the database. If the today's date is past then no problem. If not, then it would display an error. Code:

Start Date - End Date = Number Of Days
I have a starting date for var 1 and today’s date for var 2. I need to calculate how many days are between those two dates.

02/24/03(today) - 01/14/2002(start date) = number of days.

In theory this is easy but there are many instances were I could get an inaccurate answer. For example one consideration is that some months have 30 days others have 31. exc.

My question is, is there an easier way to solve this problem other than using endless if statments to error handle all possible instances? Does PHP4 have any built in functions that could calculate this formula correctly?

Subtracting Days From Date
I have a date format written in Y-m-d and I need to be able to subtract a set number of days and then display the result. I know a lot has been written about this but it has beaten me.

// get todays date
$mydate = date("Y m d");

// split into individual y,m,d
$datearr = split("-",$mydate);

// make timestamp
$timestamp = mktime(0,0,0,$datearr[1],$datearr[2],$datearr[0]);

// increment date, you can alter the number of days obviously
$newtimestamp = strtotime("-2 days",$timestamp);

// change to readable date
$mynewdate = strftime("%Y-%m-%d",$newtimestamp);

echo $mydate; // outputs 2003 09 30
echo $mynewdate; // outputs 2002-11-28

This code subtracts 2 days which is fine, but then it also subtracts a year and adds two months..

2) only the events which fall on the CURRENT DATE or after, limiting the results to 5 entries
3) all events that fall on CURRENT DATE or afterwards
