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>");
?>
