RE: [PHP] Need to know the date of the Monday for the week I'm in.

Thanks to both John and Scott. I found John's example to be a bit more straight forward. Here I've modified the code to take any date in YYYYMMDD format... function findMonday($date) { //$date is in the mySQL form of YYYYMMDD $year = intval(substr($date,0,4)); $month = intval(substr($date,4,2)); $day = intval(substr($date,6,2)); $dow = ((date("w", mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day,$year)) + 6) % 7); $monDate = date("Ymd", mktime(0,0,0,$month,($day-$dow),$year)); return $monDate; } > -----Original Message----- > From: John [mailto:jpoz@quickscribble.com] > Sent: Monday, April 07, 2003 2:36 PM > To: php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: Re: [PHP] Need to know the date of the Monday for > the week I'm in. > > > The first line tells you the day of the week numerically (and > resets Monday > to 0, instead of Sunday) > > Second line tells you the date of this weeks Monday.
