Hello, I need a bit of help- I get the following error on my site when I add a banner:

Warning: mktime() expects parameter 3 to be long, string given in /home/goldenpl/public_html/ptc/admin2/banners.php on line 69

Here is the file code:

		title='".htmlentities($title)."',

		$Db1->sql_close();
		header("Location: index.php?view=admin&ac=banners&".$url_variables."");
}

if(($step == "") && ($search == 1)) {
	header("Location: index.php?view=admin&ac=banners&search=1&search_str=$search_str&search_by=$search_by&step=2&orderby=$orderby&type=$type");
	exit;

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

$this_banner[dsub] is probably returning a string instead of an integer. If you're sure it is an integer you can try:

(int)$this_banner[dsub]

otherwise, check it's contents.
