I struggle because I'm not good with the date data type. My first failure
was to count the weeks between the start date and the current date and I
failed. Then I built a PHP switch trap with current date falling between two
dates or after being post season, would be perfect. When I hover on the ESPN
week selector, it reveals the two dates.
How do I code an IF current date between date1 and date2?

The difference between college and pro is a separate problem that I think I
can handle. ... I like your solution and am googling for a between dates php
solution.

Here is some code I use for changing video's each day

Should be self explanatory, but if not, give me a shout

<?php

        if ($day == "Monday")

Subject: php date function

Could somebody get me started on a PHP switch or IF ELSE function to set the
current week of a football season. Right now I am setting the date manually
each week with the following:

 

<?php

// function TO GET curweek of football season

 

function getCurWeek() {   

  $curWeek = '05';

  return $curWeek;

} // end of getCurWeek

?>

 

Ideally I want to test the current date if it's between the start and end
date of each week. The wrinkle is and I need to adjust somehow, the pro
season is 1-week behind the college season and anything past curweek['15']
will be 'PS' post season for college and past curweek['17'] for pro's will
be 'PS' if you follow. I'll probably have to return two values instead of
the 1 that I'm doing now. I tried several and my php date syntax doesn't
work.
