Here's a one-line function I just wrote to find the numbers of days in a month that doesn't depend on any other functions.
The reason I made this is because I just found out I forgot to compile PHP with support for calendars, and a class I'm writing for my website's open source section was broken. So rather than recompiling PHP (which I will get around to tomorrow I guess), I just wrote this function which should work just as well, and will always work without the requirement of PHP's calendar extension or any other PHP functions for that matter.
I learned the days of the month using the old knuckle & inbetween knuckle method, so that should explain the mod 7 part. :)
<?php
/*
* days_in_month($month, $year)
* Returns the number of days in a given month and year, taking into account leap years.
*
* $month: numeric month (integers 1-12)
* $year: numeric year (any integer)
*
* Prec: $month is an integer between 1 and 12, inclusive, and $year is an integer.
* Post: none
*/
// corrected by ben at sparkyb dot net
function days_in_month($month, $year)
{
// calculate number of days in a month
return $month == 2 ? ($year % 4 ? 28 : ($year % 100 ? 29 : ($year % 400 ? 28 : 29))) : (($month - 1) % 7 % 2 ? 30 : 31);
}
?>
Enjoy,

This will work great in future dates but will give the wrong answer for dates before 1550 (approx) when leap year was introduced and the calendar lost a year or two.
Sorry now to be more specific it has been a while sine I had to account for those later dates and had to take that into account but just a heads up for others to watch out.
