In this post we show you how to gate list of day by passing day(Sunday, Monday, etc… or number of days).

function dates_of_month() : This function is use for get all list of date by give day. In this function we pass date in number like 0 = Sunday, 1 = Monday, 2 = Tuesday, 3 = Wednesday, 4 = Thursday, 5 = Friday, 6 = Saturday.

function dates_of_monthby_day() : This function is use for get all list of date by give day. In this function we pass date in name like Mon, Tue etc..

// this function is use for get date of month by given day
// Note : day is in number 
//  0 = Sunday,  1 = Monday,  2 = Tuesday,  3 = Wednesday, 4 = Thursday,  5 = Friday,  6 = Saturday
function dates_of_month($month,$year,$day_name)
{
    // cal days in month
    $num = cal_days_in_month(CAL_GREGORIAN, $month, $year);
    $dates_month = array(); // assign array 
    for($index = 1 ; $index <= $num ; $index++)
    {
        $make_time = mktime(0,0,0,$month,$index,$year);
        $date = date("d-M-Y", $make_time);

        $date_day = date('w',$make_time); 
        if($date_day == $day_name)
        {
            $dates_month[$index] = $date;
        }  
    }
    $_dates = array_values($dates_month);
    return $_dates;  // return date  in array 
}

// this function is use for get date of month by given day
// Note : day is name
//  like Mon, Tue etc...
function dates_of_monthby_day($month,$year,$day_name)
{
    // cal days in month
    $num = cal_days_in_month(CAL_GREGORIAN, $month, $year);
    $dates_month = array();
    for($index = 1 ; $index <= $num ; $index++)
    {
        $make_time = mktime(0,0,0,$month,$index,$year);
        $date = date("d-M-Y", $make_time);

        $date_day = date('D',$make_time); 
        if($date_day == $day_name)
        {
            $dates_month[$index] = $date;
            // $dates_month[$index]=$date.' day is -'.$date_day;
        }        
       
    }
    $_dates = array_values($dates_month);
    return $_dates; // return date  in array 
}

//  0 = Sunday,  1 = Monday,  2 = Tuesday,  3 = Wednesday, 4 = Thursday,  5 = Friday,  6 = Saturday

$function_month =  11; // pass your month
$function_year  =  2016; // pass your year 
// pass your day with number ex Sunday = 0
$function_day_in_number   =  0; // pass day in number of week  
$function_day   = "Mon"; // pass date in string like Mon, Tue etc..

$dates_of_month = dates_of_month($function_month ,$function_year,$function_day_in_number);
$dates_of_monthby_day = dates_of_monthby_day($function_month ,$function_year,$function_day);
echo "<pre> ";
print_r ( $dates_of_month ); // print list of all days
print_r ( $dates_of_monthby_day ); // print list of all days
echo " </pre> ";
