There is probably a more elegant solution than this but you can just use php's date function:

$maxDays=date('t');
$currentDayOfMonth=date('j');

if($maxDays == $currentDayOfMonth){
  //Last day of month
}else{
  //Not last day of the month
}

---

Try to use this:

date('t');

---

date('t');

or you may use

cal_days_in_month.

see here: http://php.net/manual/en/function.cal-days-in-month.php

---

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

---

Use date function:

if (date('t') == date('j'))
{
   ...
}

---

Use php's function: cal_days_in_month

More details here

cal_days_in_month(CAL_GREGORIAN, 8, 2003);

---

$date = new DateTime('last day of this month');
$numDaysOfCurrentMonth = $date->format('d');

---

this is to find the days in any month:

$days = intval(date('t', strtotime($desiredDate)));

---

     echo date('t'); /// it return last date of current month

---

And here it is, wrapped up as a function:

function is_last_day_of_month($timestamp = NULL) {
    if(is_null($timestamp))
        $timestamp = time();
    return date('t', $timestamp) == date('j', $timestamp);
}

---

Using the modern DateTime object class:

$date = new DateTime('last day of this month');
