PHP - Month Not Working, Php Bug?

delete

Hi,

As the title says, I'm trying to get the last working day of the month (by this I mean excluding Saturday and Sunday). My thinking was that I basically need to this:

If (day = Sat)
   {
      -1 day
   }
elseif (day = Sun)
   {
     -2 days
   }
else
   {
     keep it as it is
   }

So far, all I have is the below to echo out the day of date("t/m/y"), however, all I'm getting is Thursday, whereas the last day of March is a Saturday

Code: [Select]
<?php

$lastdateofthemonth = date("t/m/y");
$lastworkingday = date('l', strtotime($lastdateofthemonth));
echo $lastworkingday; 

?>
Can anyone help, or point me in the way of where this may have been answered in the past? I've searched all over Google but can't find what I'm looking for.

Thanks

In a previous posting I was having a problem with a calendar filling in with events. That is now working. However, I cannot get the Previous/Next month selections to work correctly. Here is the coding for that portion of the calendar:
Code: [Select]
/* date settings */
$month = (int) ($_POST['month'] ? $_POST['month']
                                : ($_GET['month'] ? $_GET['month'] 
                                                  : date('m')));
 
$year= (int) ($_POST['year'] ? $_POST['year']
                               : ($_GET['year'] ? $_GET['year'] 
                                                  : date('Y')));

/* "previous month" control */
$previous_month_link = '<a href="?month='.($month != 1 ? $month - 1 : 12).'&year='.($month != 1 ? $year : $year - 1).'" class="control">&lt;&lt;   Previous Month</a>';

/* select month control */
$select_month_control = '<select name="month" id="month">';
for($x = 1; $x <= 12; $x++) {
  $select_month_control.= '<option value="'.$x.'"'.($x != $month ? '' : ' selected="selected"').'>'.date('F',mktime(0,0,0,$x,1,$year)).'</option>';
}
$select_month_control.= '</select>'."\n";

/* select year control */
$year_range = 4;
$select_year_control = '<select name="year" id="year">';
for($x = ($year-floor($year_range/2)); $x <= ($year+floor($year_range/2)); $x++) {
  $select_year_control.= '<option value="'.$x.'"'.($x != $year ? '' : ' selected="selected"').'>'.$x.'</option>';
}
$select_year_control.= '</select>'."\n";

/* "next month" control */
$next_month_link = '<a href="?month='.($month != 12 ? $month + 1 : 1).'&year='.($month != 12 ? $year : $year + 1).'" class="control">Next Month &gt;&gt;</a>';

/* bringing the controls together */
$controls = '<form method="get">'.$previous_month_link.'&nbsp;'.$select_month_control.$select_year_control.'&nbsp;<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Go" />&nbsp;'.$next_month_link.' </form>';

//CODING REMOVED
echo draw_calendar($month,$year,$events);
Here is the SQL query if that helps: Code: [Select]
SELECT Events.EventTitle, DATE_FORMAT(Performance.startDateTime, '%Y-%m-%e') AS event_date,
DATE_FORMAT(Performance.startDateTime, '%h:%i %p') AS start_time, Events.EventID, Events.ShoWareEventLink, Events.group_id, Performance.category_id
FROM Events LEFT JOIN Performance ON Events.EventID = Performance.EventID WHERE Events.group_id=1 AND Performance.category_id!=5 AND Performance.category_id!=7
AND Performance.category_id!=8 AND  DATE_FORMAT(Performance.startDateTime,'%Y')=$year AND DATE_FORMAT(Performance.startDateTime,'%m')=$month
What currently happens with my calendar is that it will list events for THIS month and the next three months. After that it hits next year (January 2012) and the calendar goes blank. It will also go blank if you choose Previous month (even though there are events that happened in September 2011 and before. You can see this if you go to http://www.myalaskacenter.com/calendars/calendarSample3.php.

Does anyone know what should be done to the code to fix this?

Trying to get the below to generate the month in word form from a numeric entry in a database.
Code: [Select]
elseif($_GET['rma']=="calander"){
$sql101010="SELECT DISTINCT rma_year_issued FROM $tbl_name4 ORDER BY rma_year_issued";
$result101010=mysql_query($sql101010);
while($row101010=mysql_fetch_array($result101010)){
extract($row101010);
$content.='<a href="./acp_admincp.php?rma=calander&year='.$rma_year_issued.'">'.$rma_year_issued.'</a>
<br />';
}

if(isset($_GET['year'])){
$logout.=' | <a href="./acp_admincp.php?rma=calander">Back to RMA Calander</a>';
$rma_year_issued=$_GET['year'];
$sql111010="SELECT DISTINCT rma_month_issued FROM $tbl_name4 WHERE rma_year_issued='$rma_year_issued' ORDER BY rma_month_issued";
$result111010=mysql_query($sql111010);
while($row111010=mysql_fetch_array($result111010)){
extract($row111010);
$months = array('Janurary', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December');
for($i=0; $i <=11; $i++){
if($rma_month_issued=$i){
$rma_month_issued2=$months[$i];
}
}
$content="";
$content.='<a href="./acp_admincp.php?rma=calander&year='.$rma_year_issued.'&month='.$rma_month_issued.'">'.$rma_month_issued2.'</a>
<br />';

}
}
}

Basically in the data base I may have 2,5,7 under the year 2011.

I want to get the numeric months into words for use in the text of the link.

The above is returning December even though the entry in the database is 5.

So I am creating a list of events.  There will be a drop down menu to change between months.  I only want the months to be listed if an event during that month exists.

So if I have events listed for September and November, list only September and November, skipping October.  Any idea on how to approach this or if there are any functions for such a thing?
