how do I automatically "echo" a date 6 months from now. For example, today's date is May 15, 2008. How do I list the date, November 15, 2008?

Well I found this on php.net/date, will this work?

 

$futuredate = mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m")+6, date("d"),  date("Y"));

echo "$futuredate";

Hi,

 

I'm newbie but I used some code that may work for you and is a little easier to understand

 

<?php

// 365 days a year /2 = 182.5 days half year (6mths)
// 182.5 days * 24 hours = 4380
$hourdiff = "4380"; // hours diff btwn server 6mths
$futdate = date("l, d F Y h:i a",time() + ($hourdiff * 3600));
print ("$futdate");


?>

Yeap. I think that works. But this does exactly what I need.

 

<?php
$futuretime = strtotime("+6 month");
$futuredate = date("M/d/Y", $futuretime);
echo "$futuredate";
?>
