这是非常灵活的。

/**
 * Creating date collection between two dates
 *
 * <code>
 * <?php
 * # Example 1
 * date_range("2014-01-01", "2014-01-20", "+1 day", "m/d/Y");
 *
 * # Example 2. you can use even time
 * date_range("01:00:00", "23:00:00", "+1 hour", "H:i:s");
 * </code>
 *
 * @author Ali OYGUR <alioygur@gmail.com>
 * @param string since any date, time or datetime format
 * @param string until any date, time or datetime format
 * @param string step
 * @param string date of output format
 * @return array
 */
function date_range($first, $last, $step = '+1 day', $output_format = 'd/m/Y' ) {

    $dates = array();
    $current = strtotime($first);
    $last = strtotime($last);

    while( $current <= $last ) {

        $dates[] = date($output_format, $current);
        $current = strtotime($step, $current);
    }

    return $dates;
}

// will return dates array
function returnBetweenDates( $startDate, $endDate ){
    $startStamp = strtotime(  $startDate );
    $endStamp   = strtotime(  $endDate );

    if( $endStamp > $startStamp ){
        while( $endStamp >= $startStamp ){

            $dateArr[] = date( 'Y-m-d', $startStamp );

            $startStamp = strtotime( ' +1 day ', $startStamp );

        }
        return $dateArr;    
    }else{
        return $startDate;
    }

}

returnBetweenDates( '2014-09-16', '2014-09-26' );

// print_r( returnBetweenDates( '2014-09-16', '2014-09-26' ) );

它将返回如下所示的数组:

Array
(
    [0] => 2014-09-16
    [1] => 2014-09-17
    [2] => 2014-09-18
    [3] => 2014-09-19
    [4] => 2014-09-20
    [5] => 2014-09-21
    [6] => 2014-09-22
    [7] => 2014-09-23
    [8] => 2014-09-24
    [9] => 2014-09-25
    [10] => 2014-09-26
)

这很简短，而且应该在PHP4+中工作。

function getDatesFromRange($start, $end){
    $dates = array($start);
    while(end($dates) < $end){
        $dates[] = date('Y-m-d', strtotime(end($dates).' +1 day'));
    }
    return $dates;
}

function getWeekdayDatesFrom($format, $start_date_epoch, $end_date_epoch, $range) {

    $dates_arr = array();

    if( ! $range) {
        $range = round(abs($start_date_epoch-$end_date_epoch)/86400) + 1;
    } else {
        $range = $range + 1; //end date inclusive
    }

    $current_date_epoch = $start_date_epoch;

    for($i = 1; $i <= $range; $i+1) {

        $d = date('N',  $current_date_epoch);

        if($d <= 5) { // not sat or sun
            $dates_arr[] = "'".date($format, $current_date_epoch)."'";
        }

        $next_day_epoch = strtotime('+'.$i.'day', $start_date_epoch);
        $i++;
        $current_date_epoch = $next_day_epoch;

    }

    return $dates_arr;
} 

function createDateRangeArray($strDateFrom,$strDateTo)
{
    // takes two dates formatted as YYYY-MM-DD and creates an
    // inclusive array of the dates between the from and to dates.

    // could test validity of dates here but I'm already doing
    // that in the main script

    $aryRange = [];

    $iDateFrom = mktime(1, 0, 0, substr($strDateFrom, 5, 2), substr($strDateFrom, 8, 2), substr($strDateFrom, 0, 4));
    $iDateTo = mktime(1, 0, 0, substr($strDateTo, 5, 2), substr($strDateTo, 8, 2), substr($strDateTo, 0, 4));

    if ($iDateTo >= $iDateFrom) {
        array_push($aryRange, date('Y-m-d', $iDateFrom)); // first entry
        while ($iDateFrom<$iDateTo) {
            $iDateFrom += 86400; // add 24 hours
            array_push($aryRange, date('Y-m-d', $iDateFrom));
        }
    }
    return $aryRange;
}
