monthly - reset count

[gcue]

i am trying to track down my monthly minutes for a calling plan i have.

everytime i enter X minutes into a script it deducts X amount from the grand total of 2000 (which i am alotted per month.)

my plan resets the minute count every 22nd of every month. in a perfect world, i can open the program every month on the 22nd, but what happens if i dont open it on that day? how can i tell the script to reset the count?

i was thinking the following:

track the day when it last resets. (write a date stamp in an ini file)

then

if @mday = 22 and _datediff($today, $last_reset) > 28 then RESET (rewrite last reset date)

but that will keep resetting trailing days if the month has more than 28 days

please help!

The logic is:

If month_difference => 1 and current_date => 22 then RESET

Reset

{

write current month in your .ini

}

Also remember about negative difference(January minus December = -11) or check a year too...
