I would probably start with date_start, and use mktime() to add 1 day until you reach date_end.

 

You can also add 60*60*24 seconds, but apparently that may cause trouble during daylight savings switchovers.  Not that I actually understand what happens to time values during DST

redarrow, I know you know how to write a for loop, as I've seen you write code more advanced than this for other people. Why don't you try something, and then we can help you edit it. btherl suggested a way to do it that will work with your existing code, so just plug it in.

this is something like what you want i think:

 

<?php
//todays date is time()
$date_start = time();

//get 7 days ahead. change 7 to any number of days
$date_end = time() + 24 * 60 * 60 * 7;

//some for loop to get the start date to end date showing all dates
for($i = $date_start; $i < $date_end; $i += 84600){
$out_dates .= date("d-m-y", $i)."<br>";
}

//echo out the dates
echo $out_dates;
?>
