Get last date PHP

Question

I want to know how to get LAST DAY when I just know month and year. The month is integer and year is integer too. This is the codes :

<?php
$month = 2;
$year = 15; //I don't know why after "date('y',strtotime($tanggal_awal))" I get 15 not 2015

//how to know last date ????
?>

The real source is not like this. It's very long. I want to know PROPER MANNER TO GET last day WHERE MONTH IS FEBRUARY AND YEAR IS 2015.

Just get the days in the month, that's the same as the 'last day' : http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.cal-days-in-month.php — naththedeveloper, Jan 03 '14 at 10:20

You can use the cal_days_in_month() function, the total number of days is the same as what the last day will be.

You may need to install the calendar functions in PHP, follow instructions here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/calendar.installation.php

As suggested in the comments you can also use date('t'), which doesn't require the above extension to be installed.

```date('t')``` ([manual](http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php)) works withouth additional extensions – chrki Jan 03 '14 at 10:31

use this to get the number of days of the desired month...

    int cal_days_in_month ( int $calendar , int $month , int $year )

Which gives the last date of the month.
