Nothing to worry about... PHP does it for you. You can try it you
know... Just use:
$currentmonth = 2; /* feb */
$currentday = 31;
$year = 2001; /* eg */
The output will then be:
2001-03-03
Ain't that most excellent?!?!
I should tell you though... that:
$3months = date("Y-m-d",mktime(0,0,0,$newmonth,$currentday,$year));
doesn't work. Obv. you haven't tried it. It produces an error (and
no date). Your variable name cannot begin with a number.
===== PHP Manual =====
A valid variable name starts with a letter or underscore, followed by
any number of letters, numbers, or underscores. As a regular expression,
it would be expressed thus:
'[a-zA-Z_\x7f-\xff][a-zA-Z0-9_\x7f-\xff]*'
===== =====
So I'd say: $threeMonths.
