Grab all Wednesdays in a given month in PHP

Question

This is the function I\'m trying to write:

function getWednesdays($month, $year) {
   // Returns an array of DateTimes representing all Wednesdays this month         


        

Answer 1

Use this function to get any days total count in a month

    function getTotalDays($year, $month, $day){
        $from = $year."-".$month."-01";
        $t=date("t",strtotime($from));

        for($i=1; $i<$t; $i++){
           if( strtolower(date("l",strtotime($year."-".$month."-".$i)))== $day){
             $count++;
          }
      }
      return $count;
 }

use like this getTotalDays('2014', '08','monday');

will output 4

But if you want all dates in a month on a particular day then use this function

    function getTotalDatesArray($year, $month, $day){
        $date_ar=array();
        $from = $year."-".$month."-01";
        $t=date("t",strtotime($from));

        for($i=1; $i<$t; $i++){
           if( strtolower(date("l",strtotime($year."-".$month."-".$i)))== $day){
            $j= $i>9 ? $i: "0".$i;
             $date_ar[]=$year."-".$month."-".$j;
          }
      }
      return $date_ar;
 }

use like this getTotalDatesArray('2014', '08','monday');

will output Array ( [0] => 2014-08-04 [1] => 2014-08-11 [2] => 2014-08-18 [3] => 2014-08-25 )
