Question

how to check if the date is saturday.

<input id="datePicker" name="datePicker" type="text" class="textinput date-pick">

my code:

if(date('Y-m-d', strtotime('this Saturday')) == $_SESSION['search_date']) {
  echo 'Event this saturday'; 
} else {
  echo 'Event on the others day';
}

above code echoing only for the next week event! if i search for week after or 3 week etc, is not showing the result?

Answer 1

take a look at date() in the php-documentation. you chould change your code to something like this:

if(date('w', strtotime($_SESSION['search_date'])) == 6) {
  echo 'Event is on a saturday'; 
} else {
  echo 'Event on the others day';
}
