List of scheduled events with mktime problem

Recommended Posts

I've got a page where it lists events and the dates of the events:

 

September 2009

Name of event

1-2 September 2009

 

Name of event

3-4 September 2009

 

October 2009

Name of event

1-2 October 2009

3-4 October 2009

 

I've used "mktime" PHP function in a "while" loop to move the month up by 1 as it lists the events in each upcoming month.

 

However, I've hit a problem where it just stops listing the events in November 2009.

 

I can't seem to figure out how to increment the month into the next year as well (ie. display December 2009 events and then January 2010 events).

 

<?php
    
    $today = time();//get today's date
    $today = date('Y-m-d', $today);//formate today's date
    $day =  date('d', strtotime($today));//capture day into separate variable
    $month = date('m', strtotime($today));//capture month into separate variable
    $year =  date('Y', strtotime($today));//capture year into separate variable
    $end_of_month = mktime(0, 0, 0, $month+1, 0, $year); //set end of active month
    $end_of_month = date('Y-m-d', $end_of_month);//format end of month date

while (condition) {
        echo "$month $year";
       
        while ($dates=mysql_fetch_array($var)) {
         ......
         echo "event dates";
         }
         $today = mktime(0, 0, 0, $month+1, 1, date('Y'));
         $today = date('Y-m-d', $today); //Once all scheduled dates finished, go onto next month
     $day = date('d', strtotime($today));
     $month = date('m', strtotime($today));
     $year =  date('Y', strtotime($today));
     $end_of_month = mktime(0, 0, 0, $month+1, 0, $year); //reset end of active month
     $end_of_month = date('Y-m-d', $end_of_month);
       
} //end of first loop 

     

 

Basically if anyone can help me correctly increment from December 2009 to January 2010 that would be great!

 

Thanks!
