Get week # or day # of year

Hello all.
I have an objective as follows:

- every other week a graphic needs to change
- odd weeks = blue graphic
- even weeks = green graphic

In a perfect world I would have a method that
would return "weekNumber" so IE January 15 would be
the end of week 3 of that year. It would continue till
it reaches 56(or is it 52?)

In an ALMOST perfect world I could get "dayNumber"
then divide by 7 to find the weekNumber.

Anyway, from what I understand we can not do this
with JavaScripting. Does anyone else have any
thoughts on how I could determine the weekNumber
of the year?

Thanks
FA

Here's some code that might help you...
I suggest you look into the modulas operator to find out if the week number is even or odd

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
<!--
function y2k(number) { return (number < 1000) ? number + 1900 : number; }

function getWeek(year,month,day) {
    var when = new Date(year,month,day);
    var newYear = new Date(year,0,1);
    var offset = 7 + 1 - newYear.getDay();
    if (offset == 8) offset = 1;
    var daynum = ((Date.UTC(y2k(year),when.getMonth(),when.getDate(  ),0,0,0) - Date.UTC(y2k(year),0,1,0,0,0)) /1000/60/60/24) + 1;
    var weeknum = Math.floor((daynum-offset+7)/7);
    if (weeknum == 0) {
        year--;
        var prevNewYear = new Date(year,0,1);
        var prevOffset = 7 + 1 - prevNewYear.getDay();
        if (prevOffset == 2 || prevOffset == 8) weeknum = 53; else weeknum = 52;
    }
    return weeknum;
}

var now = new Date();
document.write('Week number = ' + getWeek(y2k(now.getYear()),now.getMonth(),now.getD  ate()));
//-->
</script>
