I have a form and one field I want on the status page is estimated completion date. It's doesn't have to be that advanced as all I want to do is simply find the current date and add one week to it based on the time they submit. If someone submitted a form today, it would estimate the completion date as March 21st, 2005. How would I do that?

This code prints the date a week from now:

PHP Code:

<?php

$m = date('m');

$d = date('d');

$y = date('Y');

$date = mktime(0,0,0,$m,$d,$y);

$week = strtotime('+1 week', $date);

print date('m d Y',$week);

?>

I need to have it entered into a database and stay on that date until I change it, I'm not looking for it to update the entry everyday.

Example

If you submit something today, the estimate is listed as March 21st, 2005 until I manually change it.

If you submit something tomorrow, the estimate is listed as March 22nd, 2005 until I manually change it.

can't you just instead of printing the date in JBchris' code, just add it to a database when the form is submitted?
