Re: Last Sunday in September?

Here is how I did it. <?php //total days in september $septNumberOfDays = 30; //get the day of the month for 12:00:00am on the last day of September of the current year $septLastDay = date('w', mktime(0, 0, 0, 9, $septNumberOfDays, date('Y'))); //if the last day itself isn't a sunday if($septLastDay != 0) { //set the last sunday timestamp $septLastSunday = mktime(0, 0, 0, 9, ($septNumberOfDays - $septLastDay), date('Y')); } else { //otherwise set the last sunday timestamp to the last day of sept $septLastSunday = mktime(0, 0, 0, 9, $septNumberOfDays, date('Y')); } print date('l, F j, Y', $septLastSunday); ?> "Jay Paulson" <Jay.Paulson@wholefoods.com> wrote in message news:C01B6D00.16EB%Jay.Paulson@wholefoods.com... > Hi, > > I'm building a program and I need to find the last Sunday in September for > every year because the following Monday is the start of a new year for us. > So 2006 ends on September 24th 2006 and the new year (2007) starts on > September 25th 2006.
