[Resolved] date help (again)

[filn]

hey all, need a little more help with some date manipulations.

(part 1)
first date: october 1, 2004
number to add: 30
result: october 31, 2004

i have part 1 done and working awsome.

im trying to figure out how to do this:

(part 2)
october 1 to october 30 = X weeks
week x = x to x
week y = x to x
week z = x to x

and so on till it gets to the result date.

Couldn't you just take your number to add variable and divide it by 4.333333333.... (average number of weeks in a month) ?

$start = strtotime('Oct 1, 2004');
$end   = strtotime('+30 days', $start);
$week_num = 0;
while (strtotime('+6 days', $start) < $end) {
    if (($next_week = strtotime('+6 days', $start)) < $end) {
        echo 'week ' . ++$week_num . ' = ' . date('m/d', $start) . 
             ' to ' . date('m/d', $next_week) . '<br />';
        $start = strtotime('+1 day', $next_week);
    }
}
if (strtotime('-1 day', $start) < $end) {
    echo 'week ' . ++$week_num . ' (partial) = ' . date('m/d', $start);
    if ($start != $end) {
        echo ' to ' . date('m/d', $end) . '<br />';
    }
}

...like:

$today = date("W", mktime(0, 0, 0, 10, 01, 2004));

$later = date("W", mktime(0, 0, 0, 10, 30, 2004));

$weeks = $later - $today;
