I need to calculate the date to see if it's a holiday, i.e. is today
presidents day, which happens to be the third monday of february. Can
someone point me to some code that can do that?

Re: [PHP] calculating US holidays
That's fine for fixed dates, and I have that figured out, but presidents
day, memorial day, labor day and thanksgiving fall on different days each
year. Presidents day is the third monday of February. How do I calculate
that?

Re: [PHP] calculating US holidays
He wants the third sunday in february which can't be handled by
your code :) since the third sunday could fall on any number of
days. The following isn't very optimal but will work (not syntax
checked either).
$i = 1;
while( $i++ = 7 )
{
//
// First we find the first Sunday in February.
//
if( date( '%a', mktime( 0,0,0, 2,$i,2002 ) == 'Sun' )
{
break;
}
}
return date( '%s-%m-%Y', mktime( 0,0,0, 2,($i + 14),2002 );
Generalization of the above is left to you as an exercise *grin*.
Cheers,
Rob.

Re: [PHP] calculating US holidays
You could port Date::Calc from perl... or just call a perl script to do
the calculation. Probably the easiest way to figure out Easter (for the
extreme example) that I can think of.
