I am quietly banging my head on the wall. In concept it seems so
simple:
I need to calculate the date of an appointment next month.
but:
it needs to be on the same day of the month,
eg: from the 2nd Tuesday of this month to the 2nd Tuesday of
next month.
obviously this will not work the 5th week of any month, so we can
limit it to the first 4 weeks of the "from" month (but this is
not the same as the first 28 days- for example January of this
year starts on a Saturday so the first "week" is only Jan 1. The
2nd "week" is Jan 2..8, the third "week" is Jan 9..15).
I was hoping that php would have a nifty dateTime function to do
this, but I can't find one: I checked out dateInterval and the
various date functions.
Right now I am so brain locked that I can't even figure out how
to calculate which week of the month is the first date.
Any suggestions, links, kind words would be appreciated.
