No, just trying to get a consistently working numeric date for the
Sunday of that week.  yymmdd

Though a previos algorithm I had:
echo "last sunday: ".date("ymd",
mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy-date("w",mktime(0,0,0,$mnth,$dy,$yr)),$yr))."<br

is working this week properly, but has in the past worked inproperly..
there is something really goofy going on with the date math in php.

Anyone have a ultra reliable Sunday of the Week algorithm?

daylight saving time?!

use mktime(12,0,0,...) if you are interested in the date only

#get the numeric sunday
                $today_var = getdate();
                $today_sec =
mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y"));
                $offset = $today_var[wday] * 86400 ;
                $first_day = $today_sec - $offset;
                $this_week_first_date = date("ymd", $first_day);
                $path=$this_week_first_date;

this just won't get me Sunday this week.. 020407
suddenly at midnight on Monday the 8th it went to 06, this has been
running fine for many many weeks now.

Help
