Bob, You're on the right track!
I would tackle this as follows: 1. Find what day the first sunday is using getdate(mktime(0,0,0,11,1)); (getdate returns an array and index "wday" is an int 0 - 6 for Sunday - Saturday) 2. Find how many days from 11/1 it is until the first Sunday. 3. Add 7 days and you're at the second Sunday. -Josh --- In [email protected], "Bob" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > I'm trying to calculate the 2nd Sun in Nov of the current year, using php 4.3 > > echo date('w', mktime(0,0,0,11,1)); > would give me (0 - 6 Sun to Sat) Nov 1st of current year > Not sure whether I'm on the right track, starting this way? > > Tried strtotime(); but maybe I was doing something wrong. > Speed is not too important, as it's only called one. > Any advice on how to tackle this? > > Thanks, Bob. >
