Day plus 7 days to calculate new week, new weeks starts on 01-01-2023

Question

I make use of a own employee schedule system and it works great for 3 years. Now this year a new bug appears :). We work with week days and the systeem calculates current date + 7 days to calculate the next week. If you check on a sunday in december (e.g. 25-12-2022 is a sunday + 7 days) the schedule for week 52 you will find an error because 01-01-2023 is a sunday but the system says it is week 52 (so the schedule goes to week 52 of 2023 instead of week 52 of 2022).

    $('#nweek_availability').click(function(){
        setTimeout(function() {
            var week = $('.week-picker').val();
            var longs = Number(week.substr(1,2)) + 1;
            selectedDate = moment(new Date(year, month, day)).add(7, 'days').format('DD-MM-YYYY');
            if ((longs < 53) && (longs > 0)) {
                $('.nortifi-pick-week').attr('hidden', true)
                location.replace("./schedule.php?page=employee-availability&week=" + longs + "&date=" + selectedDate);
            }
            else{
                $('.nortifi-pick-week').attr('hidden', false)
            }
        }, 500);
    });

Maybe it is easier to calculate the first monday of the new week instead of current day + 7.

Did not find a solution yet to solve this but made some buttons with date that starts on monday for the next 6 weeks, so we can use buttons instead of next week arrow button so the problem doesn't show.

Please clarify your specific problem or provide additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking. — Community, Nov 24 '22 at 12:35
The issue seems to be in the function that generates the week number, which your question doesn't show. There may be a suitable answer at [*Get week of year in JavaScript like in PHP*](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6117814/get-week-of-year-in-javascript-like-in-php). Also note that some years have 53 weeks (e.g. 1 Jan 2021 was in week 53 of 2020). — RobG, Nov 24 '22 at 14:10
Please close the topic. I fixed it with an if and else with the next week button. If week 51 is selected than next week is not +7 days but first monday of week 52 — Mike, Nov 24 '22 at 14:53
