I don’t like wordpress. it changes my quotes “‘”, it changes my formating and it cuts my text when I use a < sign.

In the above comment you should add the following line
< 10

You use the internet to check your values, but you can also use it for querying your values:

[pre]

select 2000 + level
, cast( to_timestamp_tz( extractValue( HTTPURITYPE( ‘www.holidaywebservice.com/Holidays/GBSCT/Dates/GBSCTHolidayDates.asmx/GetEaster?year=’
|| to_char( 2000 + level )
).getXML()
, ‘/dateTime’
, ‘xmlns=”http://www.27seconds.com/Holidays/GBSCT/Dates/”‘
)
, ‘YYYY-MM-DD”T”HH24:MI:SS.FF7TZH:TZM’
) as date
)
from dual connect by level

There’s a Knowledge Base article on doing precisely this at http://www.dizwell.com/prod/node/368

The function described there correctly tells you that Good Friday in 2008 will be on 21st March.

I was intrigued by this bug, and read through some Java based examples. It seems that the have an additional if statement ( if(n > 31) ) which causes the result to be correct for 2008. http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/Development-Class/EastercomputethedayonwhichEasterfalls.htm
