riviere_gh at yahoo dot fr includes a useful date to week function, below. Seems to me that it needs one minor change, or else it might correct the week incorrectly in some cases. Change the function: <? function dateToSemaine($date){ $annee=date('Y',$date); $datePremier="1/1/$annee"; $datePremier=strtotime($datePremier); $joursNum=date('w',$datePremier)-2; $nbJour=date('z',$date); $semaine=intval(($nbJour+$joursNum)/7); return $semaine+1; } ?> So that it looks like this: <? function dateToSemaine($date){ $annee=date('Y',$date); $datePremier="1/1/$annee"; $datePremier=strtotime($datePremier); $joursNum=date('w',$datePremier)-2; $nbJour=date('z',$date)+1; $semaine=intval(($nbJour+$joursNum)/7); return $semaine+1; } ?> This makes sense, because the date function counts the day of year beginning from 0, so we have to add one to line 6 so that the function recognizes day 1 as day 1 rather than day 0. After making this change, the function can correctly return the number of weeks in January 2005. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+43943 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+43943&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+43943&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
