Get a date range covering 2 business weeks starting with current monday

I am having trouble adjusting a week range in PHP.
I have it working to show the current work week starting on monday.
So for this week it shows 11/29/2010 - 12/03/2010.

I need to modify this to start from the current work week's monday and show and end date of two fridays from the monday.

So for example currently it would show a start date of 11/29/2010 and and end date of 12/10/2010.

Here is my code

<?
$timestamp = time();
echo date("m/d/Y", strtotime("this monday", $timestamp));
echo " - ";
echo date("m/d/Y", strtotime("Next Friday", $timestamp));
?>

How do I add +7 to "Next Friday"

thx

Just realised that "previous monday" only works the current day is tuesday or later...but it's a starting point for you..

<?php
    $monday = date('m/d/Y', strtotime("previous monday"));
    $friday = date('m/d/Y', strtotime($monday . " + 11 days"));
    echo $monday . ' - ' . $friday ;
?>

You cannot use this monday to construct date time,
as it went pass Monday, it return next Monday

here is my suggestion

<?
$current_wkday = date('N', time());
switch ($current_wkday)
{
  /* assuming on sunday, get next monday */
  case 0:  $this_monday = strtotime('+1 day'); break;
  case 1:  $this_monday = time(); break;
  default: $this_monday = strtotime('-'.($current_wkday-1).'day'); break;
}

echo date("m/d/Y", $this_monday); /* 11days = 7+(5-1) */
echo " - ";
echo date("m/d/Y", $this_monday+(86400*11));
?>

Instead of strtotime("Next Friday", $timestamp) do strtotime("Next Friday", $timestamp) + 60*60*24*7 (add the number of seconds in a week).
