You'll want to do something like this:

  $timeStamp = strtotime("2004-04-29");
  $timeStamp += 24 * 60 * 60 * 7; // (add 7 days)
  $newDate = date("Y-m-d", $timeStamp); 

The 'strtotime' function converts all sorts of standard dates to the Unix
Epoch seconds (seconds since 1/1/1970). You then just add the required
seconds!

Subject: [PHP] adding days to a given date


Hi there,

I am trying to add days to a given day, but somehow I am lost in all the time
functions.
This should be a standard function. Maybe someone has a good hint for me?

This is the given day:
2004-04-29
I would like to add 2 days to it.
So php should anyhow now how many days April has to result in this:
2004-04-30
2004-05-1

Thank you for any helpful hint,

merlin
