I have built an availability calender, which connects to a database and checks the fileds. If the field has nothing in it then 1 is displayed. If the field has the word check in it then 1 is displayed in bold with a strikethrough. I copied this statment below upto december 31st which was a lot of hard work. Is there any of producing this in a loop? i.e so it goes jan1,jan2,jan3 and so on upto dec 31st, without having to produce this statment everytime by sadly copying and pasting and changing the number and month?

<? if ($jan1==''){ ?><p align="center">1
<? } elseif ($jan1=='check') { ?>
<strong><s><p align="center">1</s></strong><s>
<? } ?>

  for ($daynumber=0; $daynumber < $numberofdays ; $daynumber++)
  {
    $newdate = mktime (0,0,0,date("m")  ,date("d")+$daynumber,date("Y"));
    echo "<td width=65><center>".date("D",$newdate)."<br>".date("d M",$newdate)."</td>\n";
  }

Not sure if this helps but above is some code I wrote which cycles through from the current day to a date $numberofdays days in the future - it puts them into a table, but you can do with them what you want. Just change the $numberofdays to 365 (you can even do it in the link ie "calendar.php?numberofdays=365") and it will display that many days in thefuture.

This also gets around the fact that you're not sure whether its a leap year or not...
