Be cautious while using this.
$mth = 1;
$pay_date = "2010-01-31";
$end_date = date('m-d-Y',strtotime("$pay_date + $mth months"));
echo $end_date; //03-03-2010, will take you to March

Try changing above to:
$end_date = date('m-d-Y',strtotime("$pay_date + $mth months"));
I think your mail client took it out of the add_date function.

If you want the value of $pay_date to be the argument of strtotime, you need
to enclose it in double quotes (do the same for all other occurrences).
Try:
strtotime("$pay_date");
[...]
When a string is
specified in double quotes or with heredoc,
variablesare
parsed within it.

Re: [PHP] Adding Time
I have copied the echo and the code, for clarity I have echo'd 1,2,3, etc
to see which is working.
Thank you for your help. Hope this is clear.
Gary
$loan_length=($_SESSION['loan_length']); //is set to 36 months
$pay_date=($_SESSION['pay_date']); //is set to 01-05-2010
$orgDate=($_SESSION['pay_date']);
$mth=($_SESSION['loan_length']);
$end_date=date('m-d-Y',strtotime('$mth')) + date('m-d-Y',
strtotime('$pay_date'));
$loan_length=date('m-d-Y');
$mthdate=date('m-d-Y',
function add_date($orgDate,$mth){
$cd = strtotime($orgDate);
return $end_date;
}
$orgDate=date("m",strtotime('$loan_length'));
echo 1 ."";
echo $mth ."";
echo 2 ."";
echo $end_date ."";
echo 3 ."";
echo $pay_date ."";
echo 4 ."";
echo $loan_length."";
echo 5 ."";
echo $orgDate."";
?>

Can you echo $pay_date and show us how the input date is formatted? eg.
2010-03-27
Can you also show us the output of the last four echo statements?
This works for me:
function addMonthsToDate($start,$month)
{
return strtotime("$start + $month months");
}
$test = addMonthsToDate("2010-03-26",3);
echo date('Y-m-d',$test); // gives 2010-06-26
Re: [PHP] Adding Time
It is a multi page form with all information being writting to the database
via the $_SESSION's.

You access form element values via the $_POST superglobal, why are you using
$_SESSION?

Re: [PHP] Adding Time
Thanks for your reply. This comes from the manual, I have tried to change
to my variables. I am not getting any error messages, but I am not able to
add the $loan_length to the $pay_date.
Thanks again for any help.

Add time in Unix Timestamps. Then format it using strftime.
Also to format inputted date time in the form, check in php manual, to
convert dates to timestamps (i forgot the func. name).
