date("t") will give you the number of days in the current month.

Or you can do:

date("t", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year))


to get the number of days in a specific month in a specific year (that way you can get leap year accurate counts..)

Is there a way to easily tell PHP how many days there are in a selected
month without writing the following out for each month:

if($Month == "January")
~$NumberOfDays = 31;

elseif($Month == "February")
~if($Year == "A Leap Year")
~~$NumberOfDays = 29;
~
~elseif($Year != "A Leap Year")
~~$NumberOfDays = 28;
~

elseif($Month == "March")
~$NumberOfDays = 31;

.............and so on, and so on, and so on

I would greatly appreciate any help. Thanks.
