Question

How do I go about getting all the work days (mon-fri) in a given time period (let’s say, today till the end of the next month) ?

Answer 1

If you’re using PHP 5.2+ you can use the library I wrote in order to handle date recursion in PHP called When.

With the library, the code would be something like:

$r = new When();
$r->recur(<start date here>, 'weekly')
  ->until(<end date here>)
  ->wkst('SU')
  ->byday(array('MO', 'TU', 'WE', 'TH', 'FR'));

while($result = $r->next())
{
    echo $result->format('c') . '<br />';
}
