time_stamp

[Anon]

Hi all,
I'm nre to this PHP stuff so please be kind.
I currently have the following script:

$period = 3;
$start_date = date("U");

Now, how do i get the variable $expiry_date to equal $start_date (UNIX time_stamp)plus $period (period refers to 3 days)

Basically i want to add 3 days to the starting date in UNIX time_stamp mode.

Thanx,
sal

hi sal,

the easiest way to solve your problem is just to add 259200 (60 x 60 x 24 x 3) to your $start_date
