php script working every friday

Question

I have this script that is working every day between 2 hours. Now, I have 2 questions: 1) how do I make it work only every friday, not all days? 2) how do I use minutes to m code? $hour:$min > 8:15 is not working

<?php
$hour = date('G'); 
if ($hour >= 8 && $hour <= 10) { 
  include('facut_mine2.php');

 } 
?>

Thanks!

Answer 1

use date('w') to get weekday

<?php
$start = strtotime('8:15');
$end = strtotime('9:45');

if(date('w') == 5){ // day 5 = Friday
    $timenow = date('U'); 
    if ($timenow >= $start && $timenow <= $end) { 
      include('facut_mine2.php');
    } 
}
?>
