uisneach Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Hello everybody Got this script connected to a form in a previos file. Like you understand, got the values froma drop down menu here it is: inthe first file. php named Insert.php <select name='month'> <option value='10'>october</option> <option value='11'>november</option> <option value='12'>december</option> </select>"; <select name='day'> <option value='01'>1</option> <option value='02'>2</option> <option value='03'>3</option> (......) <option value='29'>29</option> <option value='30'>30</option> <option value='31'>31</option> </select>"; In the second file .php named form.php got this (retrieve the values) $day= $_POST['day']; $month = $_POST['month']; $year= $_POST['year']; if ($day= "31" and $month = "11"){ echo "<p>The day does not exist!! die(); } else { } And here I will have all the script with query in db, etcc..etcc... THE problem is that also entering other days different from 31st november, (that does not exists), I got the same message and the correct values (like e.g. 1st october, or 20 november. etc...) are considered like being 31st of november. and everything is stopped there , and die ??? anyoine has aclue/idea/advice/suggestion? thx in advance Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/128519-solved-day-and-month-control-itsnot-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy17 Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Change: if ($day= "31" and $month = "11"){ To: if ($day == 31 && $month == 11){ I guess you got the AND from MySQL syntax. Also remember that when comparing a variable (or whatever it's called) like you do in your if-sentence, you must use double comparison operators (==, && for example). Also, in the next line, remember to close the <p> you open.
