Holiday Calculation Script


Go to solution Solved by lemmin,

Recommended Posts

Hi there. I'm having trouble with a holiday calculation script. I picked it up online and have simply added/removed a few holidays to fit my needs.

 

It seems to calculate everything properly, except for Cesar Chavez day (March 31st).

 

The script basically looks for the holiday, and then determines what day of the week it falls on. If it's a weekday, great. If it's on a Saturday, then Friday is the observed day, so it should return Friday. If it's Sunday, it should return Monday.

 

As I said above, it works for the most part, but Cesar Chavez day won't compute (returns Jan 1 1970 date) in 2013, 2019, etc.

 

Looking at my code, can anyone determine what's going on?

 

Thanks in advance.

if ($dow == 0) {
$dow = $day + 1;
You don't have anything that wraps the last day of the month on Sunday to be the Monday in the next month. Same way you don't have anything that wraps the first day of the month on Saturday to be the Friday of the previous month.

It even references it in the comments hehe:

    // although New Year's & Easter look to be the only holidays that potentially
    // move to a different month, and both are accounted for.

 

 

Try changing that function to this:

function observed_day($year, $month, $day) {
    // sat -> fri & sun -> mon, any exceptions?
	
    $dow = date("w", mktime(0, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year));
	$daystring = $year . '-' . $month . '-' . $day;
	
	if ($dow == 0)
		return $daystring . ' +1 day';
	elseif ($dow == 6)
		return $daystring . ' -1 day';
		
	return $daystring;
}
