re: Paul_liversidge... This is a way to get the next 10 business days, by comparing the day of the week to not be saturday or sunday. change the top two variables to get various different results... if you want to get the next 10 business days, starting in two days from today, change the first variable to 2, and the second to 14. This should yield the next 10 working days. <?php $how_many_business_days_ahead = 0; $how_many_business_days_to_count = 7; for ($i=0;$i<$how_many_business_days_to_count;$i++) { $jump=$i+$how_many_business_days_ahead; $evalday = mktime(strftime ("%d/%m/%Y", strtotime("+$jump days"))); $theday = strftime("%A", strtotime("+$jump days")); if($theday != "Saturday" and $theday != "Sunday") { $days = $how_many_business_days_ahead+$i; $the_days[$j] = strftime("%A, %B %d, %Y", strtotime("+$jump days")); $j++; } } $k = $how_many_business_days_ahead; foreach($the_days as $eachday) { echo "$k business days from now = $eachday<br />"; $k++; } ?> results: 0 business days from now = Tuesday, August 16, 2005 1 business days from now = Wednesday, August 17, 2005 2 business days from now = Thursday, August 18, 2005 3 business days from now = Friday, August 19, 2005 4 business days from now = Monday, August 22, 2005 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55890 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55890&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55890&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55890&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55890&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55890&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55890&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55890&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
