Looking for a date function : "First Monday after a certain date"

From: Martien van Wanrooij <info(verwijderdit)@martienvanwanrooij.nl>

I would like to retrieve, let us say, the First Monday after a certain date,


so my (imaginary) function


could be something like


echo weekdayAfter("28 July 2005", "Monday") should return "1 August 2005",


(or a timestamp that could be formatted).


I have been thinking about creating a loop that increases the source date


$myDate with 24*60*60 until date("l", $myDate) = "Monday"  but maybe I am


trying too complicated solutions and overseeing more easy ones.


Any suggestions?
