Show week number with Javascript?
Simply add it to your current code, then call (new Date()).getWeek()
<script> Date.prototype.getWeek = function() { var onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(), 0, 1); return Math.ceil((((this - onejan) / 86400000) + onejan.getDay() + 1) / 7); } var weekNumber = (new Date()).getWeek(); var dayNames = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday']; var now = new Date(); document.write(dayNames[now.getDay()] + " (" + weekNumber + ").");</script>
Consider using my implementation of "Date.prototype.getWeek", think is more accurate than the others i have seen here :)
Date.prototype.getWeek = function(){ // We have to compare against the first monday of the year not the 01/01 // 60*60*24*1000 = 86400000 // 'onejan_next_monday_time' reffers to the miliseconds of the next monday after 01/01 var day_miliseconds = 86400000, onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(),0,1,0,0,0), onejan_day = (onejan.getDay()==0) ? 7 : onejan.getDay(), days_for_next_monday = (8-onejan_day), onejan_next_monday_time = onejan.getTime() + (days_for_next_monday * day_miliseconds), // If one jan is not a monday, get the first monday of the year first_monday_year_time = (onejan_day>1) ? onejan_next_monday_time : onejan.getTime(), this_date = new Date(this.getFullYear(), this.getMonth(),this.getDate(),0,0,0),// This at 00:00:00 this_time = this_date.getTime(), days_from_first_monday = Math.round(((this_time - first_monday_year_time) / day_miliseconds)); var first_monday_year = new Date(first_monday_year_time); // We add 1 to "days_from_first_monday" because if "days_from_first_monday" is *7, // then 7/7 = 1, and as we are 7 days from first monday, // we should be in week number 2 instead of week number 1 (7/7=1) // We consider week number as 52 when "days_from_first_monday" is lower than 0, // that means the actual week started before the first monday so that means we are on the firsts // days of the year (ex: we are on Friday 01/01, then "days_from_first_monday"=-3, // so friday 01/01 is part of week number 52 from past year) // "days_from_first_monday<=364" because (364+1)/7 == 52, if we are on day 365, then (365+1)/7 >= 52 (Math.ceil(366/7)=53) and thats wrong return (days_from_first_monday>=0 && days_from_first_monday<364) ? Math.ceil((days_from_first_monday+1)/7) : 52;}
You can check my public repo here https://bitbucket.org/agustinhaller/date.getweek (Tests included)
In case you already use jquery-ui (specifically datepicker):
Date.prototype.getWeek = function () { return $.datepicker.iso8601Week(this); }
Usage:
var myDate = new Date();myDate.getWeek();
More here:UI/Datepicker/iso8601Week
I realize this isn't a general solution as it incurs a dependency. However, considering the popularity of jquery-ui this might just be a simple fit for someone - as it was for me.
