function first_last_day($string, $first_last, $format) {

这应该可以工作:

$week_start = strtotime('last Sunday', time());
$week_end = strtotime('next Sunday', time());

$month_start = strtotime('first day of this month', time());
$month_end = strtotime('last day of this month', time());

$year_start = strtotime('first day of January', time());
$year_end = strtotime('last day of December', time());

echo date('D, M jS Y', $week_start).'<br/>';
echo date('D, M jS Y', $week_end).'<br/>';

echo date('D, M jS Y', $month_start).'<br/>';
echo date('D, M jS Y', $month_end).'<br/>';

echo date('D, M jS Y', $year_start).'<br/>';
echo date('D, M jS Y', $year_end).'<br/>';

试试这个，如果你使用的是PHP 5.3+，

$a_date = "2009-11-23";
$date = new DateTime($a_date);
$date->modify('last day of this month');
echo $date->format('Y-m-d');

为了查找下个月最后的日期，修改如下:

 $date->modify('last day of 1 month');
 echo $date->format('Y-m-d');

等等。

另一种使用mktime而不是date('t')的方法:

$dateStart= date("Y-m-d", mktime(0, 0, 0, 10, 1, 2016)); //2016-10-01
$dateEnd = date("Y-m-d", mktime(0, 0, 0, 11, 0, 2016)); //This will return the last day of october, 2016-10-31 :)

所以用这种方法，它会计算它是31 30还是29

    $startDate = '2011-12-01';
    $endDate = date('Y-m');
    while (true) {
        try {
            $startDateTime = new DateTime($startDate);
            $startDateTime->add(new DateInterval('P1M'));
            $startDate = $startDateTime->format('Y-m-d');
            $endTime = $startDateTime->format('Y-m-t');
            echo $startDate . ' => ' . $endTime . PHP_EOL;
            if ($startDateTime->format('Y-m') == $endDate) {
                break;
            }
        } catch (Exception $exception) {
            var_dump($exception->getMessage());
            break;
        }
    }

在测试了许多解决方案之后，这个方法最适合我。

您可以在日期函数中使用“t”来获得特定月份中的天数。

代码是这样的:

function lastDateOfMonth($Month, $Year=-1) {
    if ($Year < 0) $Year = 0+date("Y");
    $aMonth         = mktime(0, 0, 0, $Month, 1, $Year);
    $NumOfDay       = 0+date("t", $aMonth);
    $LastDayOfMonth = mktime(0, 0, 0, $Month, $NumOfDay, $Year);
    return $LastDayOfMonth;
}

for($Month = 1; $Month <= 12; $Month++)
    echo date("Y-n-j", lastDateOfMonth($Month))."\n";

代码是自解释的。希望这能有所帮助。
