How can PHP classes be utilized effectively in creating a dynamic calendar?
To create a dynamic calendar using PHP classes, we can define a Calendar class that handles the generation of the calendar grid, navigation between months, and highlighting of current day. By encapsulating the calendar logic within a class, we can easily reuse and customize the calendar across different parts of our application.
<?php
class Calendar {
private $month;
private $year;
public function __construct($month, $year) {
$this->month = $month;
$this->year = $year;
}
public function generateCalendar() {
// Calendar generation logic goes here
}
public function navigateMonth($direction) {
// Navigation logic goes here
}
public function highlightCurrentDay() {
// Highlighting current day logic goes here
}
}
// Example usage
$calendar = new Calendar(9, 2022);
$calendar->generateCalendar();
$calendar->navigateMonth('next');
$calendar->highlightCurrentDay();
?>
