Hello,

I'm trying to find out how to calculate some dates, and the part I'm
having problems with is finding the date of the first Monday in
September.

I'm looking into the strtotime() function which works some great magic
with dates, but I can't figure out how to use the day of the week syntax
start from a date other than today.

You can use releative dates with units of days:
strtotime("2002-09-01 +2 weeks");

But I can't seem to get it to work with the weekdays, I'd assume it
would be something like this.
strtotime("2002-09-01 first monday")

Is there a syntax that I'm missing or is there a way of fooling the
function to thinking it is September 1st so when I ask for next Monday
it will give me the correct date?
