    Default Multiple lessons subjects shown in weekly reminder

    Hi,

    this is a modified bit of code that I set up with help from the good folks on DD:

    HTML Code:
    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Weekly Homework</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

<script type="text/javascript">
Date.prototype.getWeek = function() {
 var onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(),0,1);
 return Math.ceil((((this - onejan) / 86400000) + onejan.getDay()+1)/7);
 };
(function(){
	var suffixes = ['', 'st', 'nd', 'rd'];
	function formatdate(d){
		return d + (d > 3 && d < 21? 'th' : (suffixes[d % 10] || 'th'));
	}
	var msgs = [ //You need 52 of these:
		
	], months = [
		'January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June',
		'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December'
	], d = new Date(), weeknum = d.getWeek();
	if(msgs[weeknum]){
		msg = '<br>' + msgs[weeknum - 1];
	}
	while(d.getDay()){d.setDate(d.getDate() - 1);}
	weekof = 'Sunday ' + months[d.getMonth()] + ' ' + formatdate(d.getDate()) + ', ' + d.getFullYear();
	window.quoteoftheweek = weekimage;
})();
</script>



<script type="text/javascript">

    What I would like is that instead of it just showing 'English' this week, it shows a number of lesson subjects, say, 'English, Maths, Science etc.' and the related homework tasks set for the children for that week. The subject and tasks need to be on the webpage for 7 days and then refreshed after that.... aaaaaaaaaaagh!!! I've just realised that if I put some work on fro Friday, it will get rid of it by the following Sunday.... and therefore not allow the children to have a full seven days to see their homework assignments.... DOH!!!

    OK so this is 'plan B', this may seem the easier option, the only issue is that if I set up some homework for 15 January 2014, some 16 January 2014 it disappears... I really need Homework subjects and tasks on the page for a full seven days, so if I put something for 15 January, it doesn't go till 22 January, if that makes any sense?

    Many thanks,


    Jay Dog

    OK, I think Plan B is the one I need to develop but the key issue is to be able to keep each homework assignment for a full seven days, if anyone can help that'd really be great.
