-----Original Message----- From: Andrew Ballard [mailto:aballard@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 14 December 2007 04:38 To: PHP General list Subject: Re: PHP date: ISO year = loss of hair If the last week of the year is the one that has Dec. 28 in it, and the last week number is 52, then Dec. 30 SHOULD return 1. Dec. 30 is not in the 53rd week of 2007; it is in the first week of 2008 according to the ISO, so a week number of 1 is correct. Andrew -- You're right. I didn't spell out what I was doing. My script calculates week 53 for 30 December 2007 (at least now it does), week 54 for 9 January 2008, week 55 for 16 January 2008 etc, if I start calculating from some date in 2007. It calculates the number of weeks between dates. The problem was if I specifically used 30 or 31 December 2007 in the calculation it fell over - if the end date was 30/31 Dec 07 I got 52 weeks less than the actual count, and if the start date was 30/31 Dec 07 I got 52 weeks more than the actual count. All the other dates worked fine, and would have worked fine for the next 4 years. The next time "week 53" occurs is in 2012.
