quick php date() help
 

You'll see what I am trying to go... hopefully lol


$yesterday = date(("F")+(("d")-1)+("Y"));

I am trying to minus 1 from the d, so I get "yesterday". How can I do this? I am probably making it too difficult. :p

$yesterday = date("F d Y",mktime(0,0,0,date("F"),date("d")-1,date("Y")));

isnt there already a flag for yesterday in php?

$yesterday = date("F d Y", time()-86400);

I tried that dude, the output I get is: December 27 2003

REALLY weird hey?

Cheers patch, much appreciated!

Sorry Correction,

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

:glugglug

This thread is hilarious :1orglaugh

Cheers to patch for an answer that makes sense.

Fuzebox is a c-unt

hey dude, just use strtotime("-1 day");

My eyes prefer "-86400" to "- 1 day" :eyecrazy

And the full line is shorter that way....

date("F d Y", strtotime("yesterday"));
date("F d Y", strtotime("-1 day"));

should have plenty of ways to do it lol.. I prefer the mktime method

You guys are crazy.

Yesterday was the 28th.

It's not only shorter but also faster than other solutions, especially than the strtotime solution :thumbsup
