How to count the days without saturday and sunday for a month

Question

I am using this to find the total number of days in a month dynamically

$count = cal_days_in_month(CAL_GREGORIAN, $_POST[\'PayMonth\'], $_POST[\'PayYear\']);         


        

Answer 1

This is what I use to calculate the number of days without weekend in a month:

$nbdayinmonth = cal_days_in_month(CAL_GREGORIAN, $_POST['PayMonth'], $_POST['PayYear']);

$nbday = 0;
for ($i = 1; $i <= $nbdayinmonth; $i++) {
    $weekday = (int)date("w", strtotime($i . "-" . $_POST['PayMonth'] . "-" . $_POST['PayYear']));
    if ($weekday > 0 && $weekday < 6)
        $nbday++;
}
echo $nbday;
