PHP Calendar

[FuG5333]

Well, so far I've made a calendar and it looks and functions the way I need it to.  The issue is, how do I do something like:  "If it's tuesday, put a link to signup.  But only on Tuesdays."?

I think you could do something like

[code]<?php
$datestamp = n; //wherever you get your date from
if(strtotime("l",$datestamp) == "Tuesday"){
//do whatever
}
?>
[/code]

note: that is a lower case 'L' and not a number "1"

I think micah meant [b]if(date("l",$datestamp)=="Tuesday")[/b] instead of [b]if(strtotime("l",$datestamp) == "Tuesday")[/b]

Here's what I have so far.  The error is something about "T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE".

[code]<?php
$todaysdate = ".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?date=".mktime(0,0,0,$month -1,$d,$year).";
  if(strtotime("l",$datestamp) == "Tuesday"){
    echo "$todaysdate";
  }
?>[/code]

My goal is to get only Tuesdays to show up with a signup link.  This is the first step.  If I can figure how to put something in only Tuesdays, then I get put a link later.  The problem is, I'm trying to eventually save each signup as a 20060610 type of date so the signups can be linked to that date only.  Making sense?

<?
$date=getdate();

$today_date=$date[weekday];

echo $today_date;

if ($today_date =="Tuesday") {

//add code
}

?>

You need to enclose weekday in single or double quotes, else it's a constant. Like [code]$today_date=$date['weekday'][/code]
