Hi,

I'm having an annoying problem with DateAdd.

I'm hosted in the States and I'm in the UK so to fix that in my Applicatin.cfm 
I've put:

<cfset UKtodayDate = #DateAdd("h", 5, Now())#>

That is fine and i've used it forever.

To find the current edition (month) of my magazine I use:

<cfset thisEdition = lcase(MonthAsString(month(UKtodayDate)))>

I want to have an image on my page which displays the next month's advert and 
I'm trying to get the next month's name.

I've tried:

<cfset nextEdition = #DateAdd("m", 1, 
lcase(MonthAsString(month(UKtodayDate()))))#>

This doesn't seem to work so I have broken it down into two lines which is:

<cfset nextEditionA = #DateAdd("m", 1, Now())#>
<cfset nextEdition = lcase(MonthAsString(month(nextEditiona)))>

This works BUT only when i use 'Now', but i'd really like to use 'UKtodayDate' 
(otherwise it's five hours behind) but for some bizarre reason it doesn't work.

Is it because when i do my initial DateAdd (<cfset UKtodayDate = #DateAdd("h", 
5, Now())#>) i'm doing it incorrectly?

Is there a way I can get all of this on 1 line instead of two?

Thanks for your help,

Saturday
