[PHP-DB] finding out the date of the first day of the current week

[David Rice]

I am trying to make a small function that will me the date in Y-m-d of the 
start of the current week (the sunday) I have only the idea of doing it by 
making a long drawn out script with if, elseif clauses for every day of the 
week... and then doing something like

if ( date('D') = "mon" ) {

$sunday  = mktime (0,0,0,date("m")  ,date("d")-1,date("Y"));

}

does anyone know a simple way to do this

Try this:

$Sunday = mktime(0,0,0,date('m'),date('d')-date('w'),date('Y'));
