Re: Date Problem

While this might not be perfect/exact information, here's a link to the 
w3schools.com date/time functions reference page, and, off-hand, you could 
convert a date string into a timestamp, and then just add, or subtract the 
relevant timestamp amount from it, using the sort of formula that a 
timestamp is measured in seconds, and thus, for example, 1 day = 60 * 60 * 
24 seconds to be added or subtracted from the result of the mktime, or 
strtotime functions executed on the date formatted string, if that's what 
you have to work with/on:

Stay well
