In order to retrieve the week number in older versions of PHP (<4.1), you can, on Unix-like systems, do it this way. (Unless PHP is running in safe mode.) <? function getWeek(){ $week = date +%-W; return intval($week)+1; } echo getWeek(); ?> This will return the current week (Note that the 'intval($week)+1' makes sure we start at week number 1 and not at 0 like the date-function on *nix's.) Also note the backtick operators, it's not quotationmarks but backticks. It's not widely useable, but I hope someone can use it. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+18821 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+18821 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+18821
