[RESOLVED] Problem passing date through form

frombumps2babes

I'm trying to obtain a user entered date through a form assigned to a variable which is then used in a calculation.

$period  = $_GET['month'].'&nbsp;'.$_GET['day'].','.'&nbsp;'.$_GET['year'];

If I echo out the variable it is correct, however the resulting calculation is wrong.

Any ideas???

Post more code. And remove the  's php doesn't understand them.

// Get date of LMP from form
$period  = $_GET['month'].$_GET['day'].$_GET['year'];

// calculate no of weeks:

	$now = strtotime ("now");
	$then = strtotime ("$period");
	$difference = $now - $then ;
	$num = ($difference/86400)/7;
	$weeks = intval($num);

	// calculate due date:

	if ($duedate == "void")
		{
			$start3 = strtotime ("$period");
			$difference3 = "24256045 ";
			$then3 = $start3 + $difference3;
			$due  = date("F d, Y",$then3);
			$dueEuro  = date("d F, Y",$then3);
		}
	else
		{
			$due = $duedate;
		}

$period  = $_GET['month'] . ' ' . $_GET['day'] . ', ' . $_GET['year'];
