date(), get week number?

is it possible to do the following?

based on a given date, work out which week number it's in?

is there a PHP function for this? I found an MCAL one, but that's not an option really...

I have a load of dates in the DB, and need to output the data based on weeks... eg:

10/03/04 = 6 hours
11/03/04 = 3 hours
etc

I then need to see what dates are in what week, then output

Week 15 (07/03/04 to 13/03/04) = 44 hours

is that possible using any PHP functions??

thanks... 🙂

From the date() manpage

W ISO-8601 week number of year, weeks starting on Monday (added in PHP 4.1.0) Example: 42 (the 42nd week in the year)

oh gosh! Can't believe I've never seen that before!!!!!!

:rolleyes:

thanks v much! I was looking at mktime() to create a function or something!!
