So I have a script that returns the number of weeks in a particular month and year. How can I take a specific day from that month and determine if it is part of week 1,2,3,4 or 5 of that month?

The most frustrating thing I have ever tried to get working – but here it is!
JavaScript
x
<?php
/**
* Returns the amount of weeks into the month a date is
* @param $date a YYYY-MM-DD formatted date
* @param $rollover The day on which the week rolls over
*/
function getWeeks($date, $rollover)
{
$cut = substr($date, 0, 8);
$daylen = 86400;
$timestamp = strtotime($date);
$first = strtotime($cut . "00");
$elapsed = ($timestamp - $first) / $daylen;
$weeks = 1;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $elapsed; $i++)
{
$dayfind = $cut . (strlen($i) < 2 ? '0' . $i : $i);
$daytimestamp = strtotime($dayfind);
$day = strtolower(date("l", $daytimestamp));
if($day == strtolower($rollover)) $weeks ++;
}
return $weeks;
}
//
echo getWeeks("2011-06-11", "sunday"); //outputs 2, for the second week of the month
?>
