Syntax for mktime()
mktime(hour,minute,second,month,day,year)
To go one day in the future we simply add one to the day argument of mktime():
<?php
$tomorrow = mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y"));
echo "Tomorrow is ".date("Y/m/d", $tomorrow);
?>
//The output of the code above could be something like this:
output
Tomorrow is 2009/05/12
for($i=0;$i<=11;$i++){
$mon = date("M", mktime(0, 0, 0, $i+1, 0, 0, 0));
echo $mon;
}

TIMER
$a=time();
// mktime(hour,minute,second,month,day,year,is_dst)
$t=mktime(00,00,00,5,11,2013);
$t=$t-$a;
$s=$t%60;
$t/=60;//$t=$t/60
$m=$t%60;
$t/=60;
$h=$t%24;
print("$h:$m:$s");
how many hours are there between midnight of today's date (May 24, 2010) and midnight April 15, 2014?
$now = time();
$taxDeadline = mktime(0,0,0,4,15,2014);
// Difference in seconds
$difference = $taxDeadline - $now;
// Calculate total hours
$hours = round($difference / 60 / 60);
$days = round($difference / 60 / 60/24);
$year = round($difference / 60 / 60/24/365);
echo "Only ".number_format($hours)." hours until the tax deadline!";
