Add days to today date (widget wordpress)

I want to create a widget in WP showing "today date" + 1 to 3 days.

For delivery of products, it would show like this : Delivery time expected between date+1day and date+3days.

I would insert code in html widget.

Here is what I tried :

<?php $i=1;echo $date = strtotime(date("d-m-Y", strtotime($date)) . " +".$i."days"); ?>

But it doesnt show anything... maybe edit functions.php.

OK am bad.

If you are using PHP to do this, you're almost there:

$oneDay = date("d-m-Y", strtotime("+1 day"));
$threeDays = date("d-m-Y", strtotime("+3 days"));

So to echo it out:

echo "Delivery time expected between $oneDay and $threeDays.";

Remember that strtotime() returns a UNIX timestamp (like 130000485), while date() formats the timestamp using the string you provide, e.g. "d-m-Y" (like 04-02-2014 for today).
