Hi, offset = 1day + 1hour + 10 secs = 24 * 60 * 60 + 60 * 60 + 10 (seconds) time() + offset = the time you need or $now = explode('.', date("d.m.Y.H.i.s", time()); $now is array ( 0 => the day, 1 => the month. aso) add to the elements of the array the values you need then turn it back into a timestamp with mktime()
