[exoskeleton]

hi dear experts... does cal_days_in_month() function is not present in php 4.4.4? i test the function with the code function_exist and return NOT PRESENT.

what is the other walk-around or alternative way to function as cal_days_in_month()?

please help...Thank you

The bodge version is to use a switch statement:

switch($month)
{
case 01: $days=31; break;
case 03: $days=31; break;
case 04: $days=30: break;
etc etc.....
}

Obviously in the case of February you need to work out if it's a leap year or not. I'd use date('L', $timestamp);

if your user inputs the month and year, use this:

$lastday = date("d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month +1, 0, $year));
echo $lastday;

adding 1 to the month and setting the day at 0 forces date() to subtract a day, giving you the last day of the given month.

if you want the number of days in the current month modify it like this:

$month = date("n");
$year = date("Y");
$lastday = date("d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month +1, 0, $year));
echo $lastday;

That's the easiest way I know of.
