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'

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?

How To Add X Number Of Days To A Date
I have been scratching my head over this one. I want to add a number of days to a date and end up with a date. The only way I've thought of doing this so far is converting to a time stamp, adding the days (in milliseconds) and then converting back. I'm sure there must be an easier way!

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..

I also tried using strtotime("+1 day"), with a similar output again.

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.

Sort Results By Date/time, Limit 5 Database Entries Of Today &/or Upcoming Days
I'm designing a website for my fraternity and in the database I have entries which contain past events, todays events, and upcoming events. My problem is that I can not figure out how to sort the query results to display: 1) only past events based on the CURRENT DATE 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 Example: Today is September 15, 2007 Problem 1) Displaying all events that happened before September 15, 2007 Problem 2) Displaying only 5 results that fall on September 15, 2007 or after Problem 3) Displaying all events that are happening on or after September 15, 2007 And obviously I would like the CURRENT DATE to change depending on what date it is, currently.

Datetime Within Past Week

When each record is stored, the datetime is logged: $date = date("Y-m-d H:i:s"); Prior to adding a new record to the database, I want to run a query to retrieve all of the records uploaded in the last 7 days. I thought it would be easiest to: Pseudo Code: $newDate = $date - 7 days; select * from TABLE where DATE $newDate; Problem is I can't figure out how to subtract 7 days from $date and convert that value to a valid datetime object.

Past Dates Script
I maintain a website for a musician who has been actively touring for more than 30 years. One of the biggest requests I get is for past tour dates. I have thousands of dates, But I have not been able to find any kind of efficient way of cataloging and displaying the dates. Since I'm always getting new dates in (from old magazines, newsletters, etc), I need a way to enter them via a form and have them sorted automatically by date, city or venue. I'm not a programmer, by any means, so something pre-made would be better, but my budget is nonexistant.

Won't Get Past The If() Unless I Put A '!' Infront Of The Isset

It won't get past the if() unless I put a '!' infront of the isset. This gives me the impression that the variable hasn't been set, I've tried it on 3 different servers and no luck on any.

Get Past Browser Cache
I've got a site on a hosted virtual server. I'd like to know the truth of what is going on, but I can't get past my browsers cache. There is some kind of error in my code that occurs on a given line. When I comment out that one line, everything else seems to work. When I uncomment that one line, the browser simply shows what was last on screen the last time the code was working. That is, if I write echo "hello"; while the line is commented out, then I change the line to echo "goodbye"; and I uncomment the line and hit the refresh button on my browser, the word hello will remain on screen. Neither FireFox nor IE will show me the truth of what they are seeing, either that be nothing or an error message. How to get around that?

IP Adresses (getting Past Proxy Servers)
i can capture IP addresses with no problem using $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REMOTE_ADDR']. this works for people with static IP addresses just fine, however people who use DSL have dynamic IP addresses and i can't match people up to their IP address this way. i need this for a site where i want to only allow people into the site from the IP address that i got from them the first time they registered, i can't use $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['REMOTE_ADDR'] for this, apparently. the only way i've seen people claim to get past proxy servers is on php.net where they said that $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] would work. however, my php engine doesn't even seem to recognize this variable. this is also important in banning people from message boards and other IP specific situations. are there any other ways of tracking users specifically by what machine they are using?

Time Like Machine To Capture Website In Past
I want to create a section that will allow users to visit the site as it was in the past. All the data of the site is stored in MySQL. Here is what I'm having trouble with. A few sections are updated daily and a few only weekly. So if someone enter 10 Dec 2002 I want the site to show that days stuff. However if on this day section D contained the same content as 8 Dec 2002 because there has been no change how would I show this? I was thinking of using strtotime() with a -day type function? Conceptually would this work? How would I cross reference or search for the closest date in the past to the date being selected? Should I use Unix timestamp or just getdate() and then plug the values into seperate fields that match for day, month, year? I'm trying to understand the value of Unix timestamp and have read numerous post but I do not see why it is more useful than just plugging numbers into seperate fields for day month year. Thanks for any help you can give me.
