Re: Regardind display of days

Convert that date to unixtimestamp using strtotime. Then use date("l") to get the day.
http://in.php.net/date
eg.
php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. $date = "2009-03-31";
  2. $timestamp = strtotime($date);
  3. echo date("l",$timestamp);

Yes. That is what it does. Try out that example by giving 1987's date
