Hm... I know '$date->add(new DateInterval('P15D'));' is possible, but it has
the same problem.
I have to write:
$date = new DateTime()
$date->add(new DateInterval('P' . getDaysToAddMethod() . 'D'));
I think it is very hard to read. Or is it just my personal point of view?
@Nikita: I know what you mean. But how would you add a month to a DateTime?
Best regards
Christian
