Answer 1

In order to get no. of days in month you can use either

date('t')

OR

cal_days_in_month(CAL_GREGORIAN, 8, 2003)

And if you wish to check if today is the last day of month us can use

if(date('d')==date('d',strtotime('last day of month'))){
//your code
}

strtotime offers many great features so check them out first
