RE: Calendar Question
well all it does is get all the users where the birthday column is 29th of february from the mysql db. then it just echos a link to their profile with their name and their age (just one mysql query :cheesy:)

I think the most logical way would be to use the year subtraction method but then when should the age chage ? 1st of march ^o) I guess they would have a problem seeing that they could drink alcohol only at 84 :| J/k
But seriously when does their age change ?

RE: Calendar Question
In a leap year, one year is added on 29th February. Else, one year is added on 1st March. Take a look at fluffy_lobster's profile (and age) for example.
