Hi Paul

I am still having problems with the expired date. Not sure if it is because I have the date settings for English (%d %b, %Y) ?

When submitting I enter the date in the format dd/mm/yyyy (I have found this is best through trial and error). When it displays it shows (ie) 31 Dec 2007 which is what I want. If I need to edit the link it shows as 31 Dec 2007 in the edit template, but I MUST reinput the date otherwise when saving it changes the date to 31 Dec 1969 (no matter what the date entered was).

I also require the link to be removed at midnight, or thereabouts, so I tried inputting (ie) 11/25/2007 - 7.00PM, which would be the server time. However, when saving it changes it to 31 Dec 1969.

Not sure if it is because I have the date settings for English (%d %b, %Y) ? strtotime doesn't know what date settings you have. The PHP manual page says it accepts GNU date input formats: http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_node/... 31 Dec 2007 would be a much safer format to type than dd/mm/yyyy, since the latter is ambigious for 12 days of every month.
