Get all days and date for a given month

Question

Would like to retrieve all days and date for a given month. Have this currently which shows all the days for the current month, but how do I parse in a specified month instead?<

Answer 1

Take advantage of the relative formats.

$y_m = '2018-10'; // set year and month.

$list = array();
$d = date('d', strtotime('last day of this month', strtotime($y_m))); // get max date of current month: 28, 29, 30 or 31.

for ($i = 1; $i <= $d; $i++) {
    $list[] = $y_m . '-' . str_pad($i, 2, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);
}

echo '
';
print_r($list);
echo '
';
