I wasn't sure if mktime(0,0,0,1,32,2001) would work.
BUT!!! I stand corrected. you are absolutely right. PHP is smart enough to
know that January 32nd is really February first. :)
Next Time I'll test the code before i respond.

as far as i know adding 1 day to the day value of the timestamp will
increment the month as well.
adding i day to july 31st will give august 1st.
if you need it i'll send you my code whihc now works.
i think gmmktime() would also have worked.
