work out the date of the fourth saturday in the current month

Question

Bit stuck about how to go about this one. Given the current month, I need to to return the date of the fourth saturday of each month.

e.g. This month would be Feb 20th, next would be March 27th.

Thanks

Answer 1

I'm not a PHP coder, however, it seems strtotime is what you're after.

You can use strtotime("fourth Saturday") and it will return the 4th saturday.

Check out the strtotime docs.

EDIT:

Just to make the answer complete, thanks to Tom and Paul Dixon

date('dS F',strtotime('Fourth Saturday '.date('F o')));
