So why would you want to calculate a day of year to a date ?
Well I needed it for my Sudoku script. (http://sudoku.gebruikmaar.nl)
I wanted to show a new Sudoku every day, and let the visitors be able to show the sudoku of yesterday and the days before.

You want to display a nice date on your PhP site (e.g. Tuesday, 15 February 2008) but it doesn’t do it in your own language.
Like me, I always want to display the date in the dutch language. Today I made new page on my www.gebruikmaar.nl page to display the week numbers. (weeknummers.gebruikmaar.nl). But even with the setlocal (setlocale(LC_ALL, ‘nl_NL’);) on nl_NL it did not work… it shows English weekdays and month name…. so… I decided to make a general script that does this for me… no matter what the language settings are.
