Just FYI you can use the word "last friday" in strtotime.  So really
you could check and see if the max day in a month is a friday and if
not fall back on last friday.  I didn't test it but I just thought I'd
throw that out there.

erics:~ eric$ php -r "echo date('n/j/Y', strtotime('last friday'));"
