Re: Date Question

Brian, Here's an algorithm: You can do it all with mktime() and getdate(). Take the day of the month, add the numerical day of the week of the first day of that month, as in $date = getdate($timestamp); $first = mktime(0,0,0,$date["month"],1,$date["year"]); $first_dow = $first["wday"]; Then I think you need to add 1 to correct for the fact that Sunday is day 0 of the week. Divide by 7, discarding remainders. Now add 1 AGAIN because otherwise you have a 0th week of the month. I think that works, but I haven't tested it. The thing you may not want is that a week that ends in, say, Saturday April 1 is still called the first week of April. As well as the 5th week of March. Anyway, good luck. --Matt ---------------------------------------------------------------- Matthew Leingang 617/495-2171 Harvard University leingang@math.harvard.edu Department of Mathematics "This signature needs no quote."
