Add number of days to a date

This should be

echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime("+30 days"));

strtotime

expects to be given a string containing a US English date format and will try to parse that format into a Unix timestamp (the number of seconds since January 1 1970 00:00:00 UTC), relative to the timestamp given in now, or the current time if now is not supplied.

while date

Returns a string formatted according to the given format string using the given integer timestamp or the current time if no timestamp is given.

See the manual pages for

• http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php
• http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

and their function signatures.

This one might be good

function addDayswithdate($date,$days){

    $date = strtotime("+".$days." days", strtotime($date));
    return  date("Y-m-d", $date);

}
