php date calculations

[sylunt1]

Hello...

 

Here is what I am trying to do....

 

I want to take $tse_start and add 28 days to it and have that be $tse_estlive which will then be inserted in to mysql.

 

$tse_start is a date field that is being posted from a form on a previous page.

 

I am thinking something like this... but as it is - no luck

 

$tse_estlive  = mktime(0, 0, 0, $tse_start("m")  , $tse_start("d")+28, $tse_start("Y"));

 

Any help is appreciated.

Try this:

 

$expire = mktime(0,0,0, date("m") , date("d")+28, date("Y")); 

[remyaarun]

$expdate = date("M-d-Y",mktime(0,0,0, date("m")+28, date("d"), date("Y")));

Theres also the strtotime() function

e.g

//assuming $tse_start is a timestamp
$tse_estlive = strtotime("+28 day",$tse_start);
//if its not...
$tse_estlive = strtotime("+28 day",strtotime($tse_start));
