RE: [PHP] Week Number
here's a quick-n-dirty way.
$doy = date('z');
$week = (int)($doy / 7);
print $week+1;
but there's one thing to be wary of:
this counts full 7-day weeks, not calendar weeks,
so since the first week of a calendar year might
begin on wednesday or friday, this algorithm might
be a few days off if you're trying to match up
the results with a calendar program.
i solved the calendar-week problem in perl a few
months ago, so i'll go look for the code and
translate it into PHP.

Does know of anyway to get PHP to return the week number?
As in there are 52 weeks in a year and this is week x?
If there is no internal feature, perhaps something built into PHPLib?

I didn't see anything built in but you might try (date(z)/7) +1 Data Driven Design P.O.

Re: [PHP] Week Number
Thanks to all of you that responded, I was so busy searching the manual for that specific function I forgot all about figuring it myself from date(z)... I really gotta lay off that crack pipe. Thanks again guys. Also, another item, I know the list is back up now, but this was mail was sent a solid DAY before I recieved it back through the list.. that's not very good, perhaps the powers that be should look over the list again...

How about this? $today = getdate(); $week = (int) ($today[yday] / 7); Note: I'm not sure whether $today[yday] begins with 0 or 1.
