您也可以将它与datetime一起使用

$date = new \DateTime();
$nbrDay = $date->format('t');
$lastDay = $date->format('Y-m-t');

试试这个，如果你使用的是PHP 5.3+，

$a_date = "2009-11-23";
$date = new DateTime($a_date);
$date->modify('last day of this month');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');

为了查找下个月最后的日期，修改如下:

 $date->modify('last day of 1 month');
 echo $date->format('Y-m-d');

等等。

2行代码，你就完成了:

$oDate = new DateTime("2019-11-23");

// now your date object has been updated with last day of month    
$oDate->setDate($oDate->format("Y"),$oDate->format("m"),$oDate->format("t"));

// or to just echo you can skip the above line using this
echo $oDate->format("Y-m-t");

function first_last_day($string, $first_last, $format) {
    $result = strtotime($string);
    $year = date('Y',$result);
    $month = date('m',$result);
    $result = strtotime("{$year}-{$month}-01");
    if ($first_last == 'last'){$result = strtotime('-1 second', strtotime('+1 month', $result)); }
    if ($format == 'unix'){return $result; }
    if ($format == 'standard'){return date('Y-m-d', $result); }
}

T返回给定日期当月的天数(date参见文档):

$a_date = "2009-11-23";
echo date("Y-m-t", strtotime($a_date));

$date1 = $year.'-'.$month; 
$d = date_create_from_format('Y-m',$date1); 
$last_day = date_format($d, 't');
