Not understanding why this is happening.

$month = date("F", mktime(0,0,0, date(m), date(d), date(Y)));
$zomonth = date("F", mktime(0,0,0, date(m)-1, date(d), date(Y)));

echoing out the exact same month

Checked server timezone/date/time all is good. Am I half asleep at the wheel on

mktime "will automatically calculate the correct value for out-of-range input."

The "31st day of February in 2008" is March 2nd, so both dates are in March.

You need apostrophes (or quotes) around your args to date() in the
parameters...

date('m')

As it stands now, PHP assumes you mean the constant m
(http://php.net/define) and that's not defined, so they are all 0.

So you are passing in 0 to ALL the args.

You also should use E_ALL for your error_reporting so you would SEE
the error messages telling you about this.

I tried that a big no go.

$month echo's MARCH should be Feb
$zomonth echo's MARCH should be March
$nmonth echo's MAY this should be April

    That's because you're using today's date('d');, which is 31.

    February doesn't have 31 days, nor does April, so mktime() forces
them to the following month to correct the error.

Well, to re-iterate what Andrew said, you're on the 31st day of the month.
Feb 31st translates to March, April 31st translates to May.

Like I said, mktime makes corrections for otherwise invalid dates.
Today is March 31. Moving the month number back by one (-1) creates a
timestamp for February 31, which gets corrected to become March 2
(March 3 in non-leap years). Moving the month number ahead by one (+1)
creates a timestamp for April 31 gets corrected to become May 1.

Thank you again Dan. Thought never crossed my mind the day being the 31st. That

    That's because you're using today's date('d');, which is 31.

    February doesn't have 31 days, nor does April, so mktime() forces
them to the following month to correct the error.

Just to clarify -- Richard's response fixes a poor coding practice in
your original post, but it does not "fix" the problem that you
originally asked about.

Hi Manuel

I used your test_smtp_message.php setting "to_address" to my hotmail, 
localhost to my ip on dyndns, smtp_host to www.hotmail.com, smtp_user to my 
hotmail, and smtp_password to my hotmail pw.

Here's the answer :
Error: could not connect to the host "www.hotmail.com": Connection timed out

What now?

Hi,

I have the code of a function to generate a random 10 character long
password following my signature.

To test it i do:

$clearpass = create_pass();
print('Clear: ' . $clearpass);

But the output is only "Clear:"

Why isn't it working ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Warm Regards,

function create_pass ()
{

  $length=10;

  $password = "";

  $possible = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvxz";

  $i = 0;

  while ($i < $length) {
    $char = substr($possible, mt_rand(0, strlen($possible)-1), 1);

I have a very similar routine, but for the previous line, since you can reference a string as an array, I do this:

$char = $possible[mt_rand(0, strlen($possible)-1)];

In this example, it would save ten function calls, if not more.

just a suggestion


    if (!strstr($password, $char)) {
      $password .= $char;
      $i++;
    }

  }

   return $password;

}

just convert it to a timestamp with strtotime()
then you can manipulate it by adding/substracting
- 86400 for a day
- 3600 for an hour
then convert back with strftime()

I believe you can also use strtoime() http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php

$time = strtotime($inputTime);
$time = strtotime('-1 day', $time);
$outputTime = strftime('%Y-%m%d', $time);

I'm not sure which is more efficient, but it helps when you're looking for "next thursday" or other things like that.

Do not use ints for date/time math.  There are WAAAAY too many wacky edge 
cases that can bite you in the butt.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date-create.php

Use a DateTime object.  You can do all sorts of manipulations to it and it 
will handle all the timezone, daylight savings, leap year, and similar 
weirdness for you.  It also supports 64-bit dates internally so you can cover 
the entire span of human history and then some.

I work for a telephone & internet company. Currently we have a tool that allows us to track the allocation of IP's to customers. What I am looking for is a tool that will allow me to track the allocation of phone numbers to our customers.

Building the tool for IP allocation management was pretty easy since the IP world works off a set of rules that govern the allocation of IP's. Unfortunately the phone number world does not have the same rule set. Actually, it has no rules.

Has anybody built, heard of, or used a tool like this?

Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks much!

Hi Jim - it sounds like a plain database to me, but surely you've got
one of those already.
