PHP Calendar Displaying Wrong Date

mjwalsh · 03-27-2011, 07:00 PM

At this point I have coding goggles and am certain I must be missing something dumb.. My calendar is displaying that the first day of March was on a Wednesday, however it wasn't, it was on a Tuesday. Any ideas on what could be causing this? ( I already verified that the servers timezone was set correct )

PHP Code:


			
 $cal_date  = time(); 

  

 $cal_day   = date('d', $cal_date); 

 $cal_month = date('n', $cal_date); 

 $cal_year  = date('Y', $cal_date); 

  

 $first_day = mktime(0, 0, 0, $cal_month, 1, $cal_year); 

  

 $title     = date('F', $first_day); 

  

 $cal_day_of_week = date('D', $fist_day);

Basically "$cal_day_of_week" is returning as "Wed" when it should return as "Tue".

The only problem that i can see is the typo $fist_day should be "$first_day".

I can't believe that happened, it's always something stupid :( Thanks codefreek! I can't believe that happened, it's always something stupid :( Thanks codefreek! (That resolved it!)
