Learn how to get first and last date of the month using php

By admin|Internet, PHP

The easiest way is to use date function, which lets you mix hard-coded values with ones extracted from a timestamp. If you don’t give a timestamp, it assumes the current date and time.

<?php
// Current timestamp is assumed, so these find first and last day of THIS month
$first_day_this_month = date('m-01-Y'); // hard-coded '01' for first day
$last_day_this_month = date('m-t-Y');
?>
