Date Issues - need assistance

[kpowning]

Ok here is what I have going right now. I'm currently passing the month number so for instance MARCH = 3. So I have the month number and year being passed to a page. I need to be able to break this down to the following:

1) I need to know how many days are in the month being passed for the current year.
2) How many weeks are in the current month based on the year
3) I need to get the beginning week number for the month being passed for that year.

If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. I'm have information that will dynamically be shown based off of the info I need above. So I have a table that will be duplicated depending on how many weeks are in that month. Within the table I need to show Mon-Sat with the corresponding date for that day based off that week all the way to the end of the month. Any Ideas?

1. cal_days_in_month()
2. 4
3. date('W',date)

How do I find out what week numbers are in a certain month? BTW Thanks for the input..

<?php 

function week_number( $date = 'today' ) 
{ 
    return ceil( date( 'j', strtotime( $date ) ) / 7 ); 
} 

?>

you could feed it the last and first day of the month, but there's probably a better way.
