$lastSundayInSepCurrentYearTS = strtotime("last Sunday",
strtotime("10/1/$currentYear"));

$firstDayNextYearTS = strtotime("1/1/$nextYear");

// So your psuedocode becomes...

Subject: [PHP] Last Sunday in September?

Hi,

I'm building a program and I need to find the last Sunday in September
for
every year because the following Monday is the start of a new year for
us.
So 2006 ends on September 24th 2006 and the new year (2007) starts on
September 25th 2006.  I was thinking that using the strtotime() would
get me
this information possibly?  Is there an easy way to get this
information?

Pseudo code:

If ((date > last Sunday in September this year) &&
(date < Jan 1 of next year)) {
year++
}

There's going to be 'tighter' and more efficient ways to do this.. probably 
some using strtotime().  I have an irrational distrust of the results from 
strtotime() though, so I use it sparingly.

Here's a simple solution though:



There's going to be a dozen ways to skin this one, just showing one way.
