finding week begining and ending days

[project3]

Im looking to get the week begining(monday - sunday) and ending date give todays date.

 

$today = date("m/d/Y");

 

Im sure you probably use mktime but Ive been able to get that to work.

 

thanks in advance

<?php
$dayOfWk = (date('w') + 6) % 7;

$wkStart = strtotime("-$dayOfWk days");
$wkEnd = strtotime("+6days", $wkStart);

echo "Week is " . date ('D m/d/Y', $wkStart) . " to " . date ('D m/d/Y', $wkEnd) ;
?>

You can also do:

<?php
$lm = strtotime('last monday');
$ns = strtotime('next sunday');
echo 'Today: ' . date('l, F jS, Y') . '<br>';
echo 'Start of week: ' . date('l, F jS, Y',$lm) . '<br>';
echo 'End of week: ' . date('l, F jS, Y',$ns) . '<br>';
?>

ken,

 

If today is Monday, "last Monday" gives the previous Monday?

 

<?php
$lf = strtotime("last friday");

echo date ('d/m/y', $lf);

?>

--> 29/02/08

You're correct -- that's one of the drawbacks with strtotime().
