Storing values in an array with wordpress

Question

So I am trying to create a wordpress plugin that stores all the dates of posts written in a certain month. So if there were posts published on the 10th, 12th and 18th of this month, I want to store those dates '10', '12' and '18' in the array $stack[]. Im new to php and so I can't figure out why this isn't storing the dates in the array:

// The Query
$themonth = date( 'n', current_time( 'timestamp' ) );
query_posts('cat=4&month=' . $themonth );
// The Loop
$stack = array();
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); 
$stack[] = the_time('j');
endwhile;

Any ideas?

Change your while into this:

while ( have_posts() ) : 
    the_post();
    $stack[the_time('j')] = get_the_content();
endwhile;

This seems to store the content of the post inside the array. I don't need to store the content, just the day of the month that the post was created.

So, ignore the content and just use the day in the key of the array!
