note 77967 added to function.date

I have to work out the day before an event to send an email notification. But if the day before was on a weekend I had to make sure the email was send on the Friday before the weekend. I didn't see anything like this around so here is what i wrote. Hope it helps some one else. <?php $dates = explode("/", "09/22/2007"); $month = $dates['0']; $day = $dates['1']; $year = $dates['2']; $yesterday = mktime(0,0,0,$month,$day-1,$year); $notification = date('l',$yesterday); if(in_array($notification, array("Saturday", "Sunday"))){ $notification = "Friday"; } echo("<p>{$notification}</p>"); ?> ---- Server IP: 209.41.74.194 Probable Submitter: 67.185.1.198 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/77967 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77967/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77967/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77967/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77967/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77967/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77967/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77967 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/77967 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
