Pls Help urgent with DATE problem

Report · Jul 02, 2006

Dear Sir,

I have to make a classified system using asp and its almost ready but.....,
i really have a big hope that someone helps me here

I have two columns to play with

1. strDate
2. StrDateDisplayAD

Once the user submits his AD I want the date to be inserted into the date
column strDate which is working perfectly well

but at the same time I want the date to be added + 5 days and insert into
the strDateDisplayAd column

for Example,

Lets say someone post his ad on 5th July, then the values in the column must
be

strDate | StrDateDisplayAD

5/6/06 | 10/5/06

Thanks in advance

Use a hidden form element that has a value of 5 days added.

In ASP VBScriptit would look like this:

<input name="StrDateDisplayAD" type="hidden" id="StrDateDisplayAD"
value="<%= FormatDateTime(DateAdd("d", 5, Now()),2) %>">
