Non numeric value encountered Help

Friends i am very green to PHP and i have older code from my website which i used since it was original. Is a PHP-Nuke Modified base. I just recently got back home from rehab (cancer in my leg) and i am using the old code to ease my mind, relax and have been ridding it of all of it’s errors but i am stuck with 2 i cannot fix . Here is the line ine question that throws the Non numeric value warning.

$year= -('date'%1461);

It is trying to add a registered user birth date. Below is the entire function.

//function realdate($date_syntax="Ymd",$date=0)
//{ return create_date($date_syntax,$date*86400+1,0); }
function realdate($date_syntax="Ymd",$date=0)
{
	global $lang;
	$i=2;
	if ($date>=0)
	{
	 	return create_date($date_syntax,$date*86400+1,0);
	} else
	{
		$year= -('date'%1461);
		$days = $date + $year*1461;
		while ($days<0)
		{
			$year--;
			$days+=365;
			if ($i++==3)
			{
				$i=0;
				$days++;
			}
		}
	}
	$leap_year = ($i==0) ? TRUE : FALSE;
	$months_array = ($i==0) ?
		array (0,31,60,91,121,152,182,213,244,274,305,335,366) :
		array (0,31,59,90,120,151,181,212,243,273,304,334,365);
	for ($month=1;$month<12;$month++)
	{
		if ($days<$months_array[$month]) break;
	}
	$day=$days-$months_array[$month-1]+1;
	//you may gain speed performance by remove som of the below entry's if they are not needed/used
	return strtr ($date_syntax, array(
		'a' => '',
		'A' => '',
		'\\d' => 'd',
		'd' => ($day>9) ? $day : '0'.$day,
		'\\D' => 'D',
		'D' => $lang['day_short'][($date-3)%7],
		'\\F' => 'F',
		'F' => $lang['month_long'][$month-1],
		'g' => '',
		'G' => '',
		'H' => '',
		'h' => '',
		'i' => '',
		'I' => '',
		'\\j' => 'j',
		'j' => $day,
		'\\l' => 'l',
		'l' => $lang['day_long'][($date-3)%7],
		'\\L' => 'L',
		'L' => $leap_year,
		'\\m' => 'm',
		'm' => ($month>9) ? $month : '0'.$month,
		'\\M' => 'M',
		'M' => $lang['month_short'][$month-1],
		'\\n' => 'n',
		'n' => $month,
		'O' => '',
		's' => '',
		'S' => '',
		'\\t' => 't',
		't' => $months_array[$month]-$months_array[$month-1],
		'w' => '',
		'\\y' => 'y',
		'y' => ($year>29) ? $year-30 : $year+70,
		'\\Y' => 'Y',
		'Y' => $year+1970,
		'\\z' => 'z',
		'z' => $days,
		'\\W' => '',
		'W' => '') );
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That line of code, containing the string ‘date’ was probably something else and accidently got changed due to some search/replace. About the only value present inside the function that makes sense is if it was $date
