Timestamps are stored as seconds from a certain date. The base date differ depending on the platform, Windows use 1/1/1980 the rest 1/1/1970, but still seconds. 7 days are 7*24*60*60. Just add that much to a timestamp. It helps having a constant such as:

define ('DAY_IN_SECONDS',86400);

Hi,

I am having troubles adding 7 days to the current date. I have been reading through php.net date() and this is what I have come up with but it doesn't work
$today = date('m/d/Y');
$nextweek = date('m/d/Y',mktime(date("m"), date("d")+7, date("Y")));

if I echo the above variables they are the same? Shouldn't the $nextweek be different?

Thanks for the help
