question on getting date.

[techlover]

Hello,

I am not sure if this is possible/easy. What I want to do is get the week of the year it is. IE week 1 to week 52.

Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks!
😃

Yup,

the date() function...
from the php manual

W - ISO-8601 week number of year, weeks starting on Monday (added in PHP 4.1.0)

so
echo date('W');
should do the trick

thanks. I just found this code that does it but I am glad it is one line now 🙂

<?
$day = date("z")+1;
$wday = date("w")+1;
$week = 1;

while ($day > 0){
$wday = $wday - 1;
$day = $day - 1;

if ($wday < 0){
$wday = $wday + 7;
$week = $week + 1;
}

}

echo "Week: $week";
?>
