Nov 15.2011

How would i go about finding the first sunday of a month?
I need it to be something like:

if (day==sunday && sunday==1’th of the month) sunday=1

I have:

var w = new Date();
var wd = u.getDay();

if (wd==0) do whatever // but need the first sunday of the month to so something else

need something like counting sundays:

var sd = ??? // sd = sunday

if (wd==0 && (sunday==1’th of month)) do something
if (wd==0 && (sunday!=1’th of month)) do something else

please help

@Sup3rkirbyNov 15.2011 — This might not be the best way to achieve what you want but it should work none-the-less:
[CODE]
var d = new Date();
var first_week = d.getDate();
var the_day = d.getDay();

if(first_week <= 7 && the_day == 0)
{
// It's the first Sunday of the month
// Do more stuff here
}
[/CODE]

[CODE]var td=new Date(), y=td.getFullyear(),m=td.getMonth();
firstSunday=1;while (dy=new Date(y,m,firstSunday).getDay()!=0) firstSunday++;[/CODE]

@wbportNov 15.2011 — Find out what day of the week the first day of the month is. From there it is a short calculation to tell you the date of the next Sunday--unless [B]getDay()[/B] returns a zero, subtract its result from 7.

Success!
