[fareedreg]

In which format by  default php accept date...  I m comparing issue and  return date but not getting exact conditon. I m using dd/mm/yyyy format.

{

 

    $_GET['txtreturn']="";

   

    $_GET['txtreturn']=0;

   

    echo ($_GET['return']);

   

 

}

 

if my $retdate(04/02/2010) is greater then  $issdate(30/01/2010)  then also its enter into the condition WHY

What function are you referring too? Maybe you are looking for this information:

You're comparing strings... not dates

 

try this

 

if(strtotime($retdate)<=strtotime($issto))
{
   
    $_GET['txtreturn']="";
   
    $_GET['txtreturn']=0;
   
    echo ($_GET['return']);
     

}
