[SOLVED] Date Validation

Recommended Posts

Why doesn't this work?

 

 


$LicenseMM="01";
$LicenseDD="29";
$LicenseYY="2010";

$CurrentDay=date(d);
$CurrentMonth=date(m);
$CurrentYear=date(Y);



if ($LicenseMM < $CurrentMonth || $LicenseDD < $CurrentDay && $LicenseYY == $CurrentYear){
echo"Your License Has Expired";
}

// I HAVE TRIED THIS WAY TOO (extra parenthasize)

if (($LicenseMM < $CurrentMonth || $LicenseDD < $CurrentDay) && ($LicenseYY == $CurrentYear)){
echo"Your License Has Expired";
}


 

Thanks again.

Because logic is evaluated left to right and your conditional test is true if the month is less, so it never checks the day or year. You must test most signification part (year) to least significant part (day) and you can just directly compare yyyy-mm-dd formats because the parts of that format are ordered most significant to least significant -

 

$License="2010-01-29";
$Current = date('Y-m-d');

if($License < $Current){
echo"Your License Has Expired";
}
