Here's antoher attempt;
<?php
$day = date('D', $ts = strtotime('thursday', $ts));
echo "$day";
$day1 = date('D', $ts = strtotime('thursday'));
echo "<br>$day1";
$day2 = date('D', $ts = strtotime('Thursday'));
echo "<br>$day2<br>";
$today = strtotime('friday');
echo $today;
?>
here's the output;
Warning: date() [function.date]: Windows does not support dates
prior to midnight (00:00:00), January 1, 1970 in
C:\apachefriends\xampp\next_thursday.php on line 9

I find that the code 'Lost' posted in this thread works fine,
I am only curious about this, thanks for your indulgence.
