Hello there

I've used many ways but i can't find the solution,my date is stored in a "date" mySql field.
I want to display full article in 4 four months time after inserted.

Code:
...
$art_query=mysql_query($getarticles);
	$n=0;
	while ($array=mysql_fetch_array($art_query)) {
						
$ids[]=$array["id"];						    					
$date_published[]=$array["date_created"];						
....
//Results of query are in an array i think this makes it all hard
$mydate=$date_published[$n];

 //$mydate->modify("+4 month");tried this too , srttotime,getdate...
// print $now;

$now  = mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m"),   date("d"),   date("Y"));
$pub_date =mktime(0, 0, 0, $mydate[month]+4, $mydate[day], $mydate[year]);

		if ($now > $pub_date){
			echo "something";
											
		}else{
			echo "something else";
											
			}
 }
$n++
something is wrong with my syntax in $pub_date i guess because when i echo it displays 1-31-2000 which is not really my date record....

$now works offcourse
