get weekday input date

[Anon]

Hi,

Anyone knows how to get the day of the week (Sunday, Monday,Tuesday, etc) out of an input date.

Thanks,
raoul

the date function allows you to get either the abbreviated day or the full day

date("D")
date("l")

Thanks Steve, I thought the date function only worked for the current date.

Didn't know that actually you can use a time stamp in the function
