根据php / joomla中的句点计算日期

Question

Anyone knows how to calculate date based on number of week/Month/Year?

suppose if i set the period as 2 weeks, I should get the date 2 week after the current date. If the period is 3 weeks, then, I should get 3 week after current date. Similarly for month and year as well. Can anybody please help with reference code? I am not able to implement this. Is there any predefined function for this?

I'm not quite clear on what you're trying to get, but take a look at this answer at joomla.stackexchange.com to see the PHP-esque date calculations that are possible. It's about quarters, but with variations like strtotime uses, you should be able to get what you need.

$date = date("Y-m-d");// current date

$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($date)) . " +1 day");
$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($date)) . " +1 week");
$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($date)) . " +2 week");
$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($date)) . " +1 month");
$date = strtotime(date("Y-m-d", strtotime($date)) . " +30 days");
