In this tutorial we will create a Get Last Day Of The Month using PHP. This code can trace the actual date for the last day base on a given month. The code use date() function to get the last day of a month by adding a parameter t as a required string. This is a user-friendly kind of program feel free to modify it. We will be using PHP as a scripting language and interpreter that is used primarily on any webserver including xamp, wamp, etc. It is being use to any famous websites and it has a modern technology that can easily be use by the next generation.

Getting Started:

First you have to download & install XAMPP or any local server that run PHP scripts. Here's the link for XAMPP server https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html. And, this is the link for the bootstrap that i used for the layout design https://getbootstrap.com/.

This is where we will create a simple form for our application. To create the forms simply copy and write it into your text editor, then save it as index.php. 
  1. <!DOCTYPE html>
  2. <html lang="en">
  3. 	<head>
  4. 		<meta charset="UTF-8" name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"/>
  5. 		<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css"/>
  6. 	</head>
  7. <body>
  8. 	<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
  9. 		<div class="container-fluid">
  10. 			<a class="navbar-brand" href="https://sourcecodester.com">Sourcecodester</a>
  11. 		</div>
  12. 	</nav>
  13. 	<div class="col-md-3"></div>
  14. 	<div class="col-md-6 well">
  15. 		<h3 class="text-primary">Get Last Day Of The Month Using PHP Source Code</h3>
  16. 		<hr style="border-top:1px dotted #ccc;"/>
  17. 		<div class="col-md-4">
  18. 			<form method="POST" action="">
  19. 				<div class="form-group">
  20. 					<label>Enter a month</label>
  21. 					<select name="month" class="form-control" required="required">

  37. 				<center><button class="btn btn-primary" name="get">Get Last Day</button></center>
  38. 			</form>
  39. 		</div>
  40. 		<div class="col-md-8">
  41. 			<?php include'get.php'?>
  42. 		</div>
  43. 	</div>
  44. </body>	
  45. </html>

Creating the Main Function

This code contains the main function of the application. This code will get the last day of the month when the button is clicked. To make this just copy and write these block of codes below inside the text editor, then save it as get.php 
  1. <?php
  2. 	if(ISSET($_POST['get'])){
  3. 		$month = $_POST['month'];
  4.  
  5. 		$last_day = date("t", strtotime($month));
  6.  
  7. 		echo "<center><h1>Month of <span class='alert-success'>".$month."</span> last day is <span class='alert-warning'>".$last_day."</span></h1></center>";
