Determining the days in a month 1

[webslinga]

Hey all,
I need to determine the number of days in a month if given the month and the year. What is the quickest way of doing that?

i've done something like this in the past, although there may be easier ways:

function getDaysInCurrentMonth() {
    $dateArray = getdate();
    $nextMonthTimeStamp = mktime ( 0, 0, 0, $dateArray['month'] + 1, -1, $dateArray['year'] );
    return date("j", $nextMonthTimeStamp );
}

echo getDaysInCurrentMonth();
?>

eh, that's kinda sloppy.

given the month and year (as you said), i'd do this:

function getDaysInCurrentMonth($intMonth, $intYear) {
    $intYear = ($intMonth == 11) ? ($intYear + 1) : $intYear;
    $nextMonthTimeStamp = mktime ( 0, 0, 0, $intMonth + 1, -1, $intYear );
    return date("j", $nextMonthTimeStamp );
}

echo getDaysInCurrentMonth(6, 2006);
?>
