this seems pretty interesting, i'm tring to write a code in php to get those two outputs, but bit confused in counting weeks. could somebody clear me..
"what is the first *date* of the first week of year 2005?" is it "saturday jan 1st 2005" (assuming first week starts from jan 1 of any year) or is it "sunday jan 3rd 2005" (assuming first day of a week is monday) or anything else. thanks vk.
