Simple PHP script to change background color base on computer's date.

If you want to change you background color everyday, just copy the code below and try running it on your server supporting PHP. I do use wampserver to test and run it.

The lowercase L on the date function is used to display the full name of the day, like Monday. While changing it to d, it will display values or numbers from 1-7 which represents 7 days of the week. Changing it to D will display 3 letters, like for example: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun.



I use switch statement. But you can also use if...elseif....else statement.
#
<html>
<?php
$day=Date("l");
echo "<h1>Today is"." ".$day;
switch($day)
{
case 'Monday':
echo "<body bgcolor='red'>";
break;

case 'Tuesday':
echo "<body bgcolor='yellow'>";
break;

case 'Wednesday':
echo "<body bgcolor='blue'>";
break;

case 'Thursday':
echo "<body bgcolor='green'>";
break;

case 'Friday':
echo "<body bgcolor='pink'>";
break;

case 'Saturday':
echo "<body bgcolor='orange'>";
break;

case 'Sunday':
echo "<body bgcolor='black'>";
break;

}
?>
</body>
</html>
