here are two functions you can use:

date format = 'DD-MM-YYYY'
( you can rewrite it for other formats )



function get_next_day( $date )
{
$next_day = date("d-m-Y",mktime(0, 0, 0, substr( $date , 3, 2), substr( $date , 0, 2) + 1, substr( $date , 6, 4) ));
return $next_day;
}

function get_prev_day( $date )
{
$next_day = date("d-m-Y",mktime(0, 0, 0, substr( $date , 3, 2), substr( $date , 0, 2) - 1, substr( $date , 6, 4) ));
return $next_day;
}

Timestamp for tommorow:


$tommorow = mktime(date("H"), date("i"), date("s"), date("m"), date("d")+1, date("Y"));You can then show this correct like:


echo date("d-m-Y", $tommorow );Thought this might look more simple then the previous example :pleased:

a MUCH EASIER way would be


echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime("tomorrow"));

no mktime() required :)

strtotime() is an amazing php function... it's one of the more impressive ones. lots of php magickery goin on in that http://us.php.net/strtotime. also seems as not many people are very familiar w/ it.

if you wanted to add a time to it all you'd have to do is do:


echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime("tomorrow 16:30:15"));


if you don't add a time it defaults to your server time



// today
$today = date('Y-m-d', strtotime("today"));

// tomorrow
$tomorrow = date('Y-m-d', strtotime("tomorrow"));

// yesterday
$yesterday = date('Y-m-d', strtotime("yesterday"));

Yea I didn't know about it until about 2 months ago, has saved me quite a bit of time not having to screw w/ mktime()

I really enjoy the moments when you have things to say, Simp... :D

I hope that sounded just as hetero' as I wanted.
