IF statement not working

[bschultz]

I'm trying to highlight "today" in a calendar....but EVERY date shows up in the highlights background color.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

 

<?php
    for( $counter = 1; $counter <= $numdaysinmonth; $counter ++ ) {
    
        $rowcounter ++;
        



$todayis = date('Y-m-d');

if ($todayis = "$thisyear-$thismonth-$counter") 
{
echo "\t\t<td bgcolor='#CCCCCC' valign='top'><span class='style3'><strong><font color='#990000'>$counter</font><br /></span></strong>";  
}
else 
{
echo "\t\t<td valign='top'><span class='style3'><strong><font color='#990000'>$counter</font><br /></span></strong>"; 
  }	 
  }	

?>

 

$thisyear-$thismonth-$counter are defined earlier...and if I echo them, they do display properly. 

 

 

Here's the whole code...if that makes it easier.

 

<?php

// Set month and year from $_GET variables if they exist, otherwise generate current
// month and year from date() function
$thismonth = isset($_GET['thismonth']) ? $_GET['thismonth'] : date('m');
$thisyear = isset($_GET['thisyear']) ? $_GET['thisyear'] : date('Y');

// Validate month
if (preg_match('/^[0-1][0-9]$/', $thismonth) === 0 || $thismonth < 1 || $thismonth > 12) {	
$thismonth = date('m');
$thisyear = date('Y');
} else {

}

// Validate year
if (preg_match('/^[0-9]{4}$/', $thisyear) === 0) {

$thismonth = date('m');
$thisyear = date('Y');	
} else {

}

$testdate = $thisyear . '-' . $thismonth . '-01';
$last_month = date('m', strtotime('-1 month', strtotime($testdate)));
$last_year = date('Y', strtotime('-1 month', strtotime($testdate)));

$next_month = date('m', strtotime('+1 month', strtotime($testdate)));
$next_year = date('Y', strtotime('+1 month', strtotime($testdate)));


    
    // find out the number of days in the month
    $numdaysinmonth = cal_days_in_month( CAL_GREGORIAN, $thismonth, $thisyear );
    
    // create a calendar object
    $jd = cal_to_jd( CAL_GREGORIAN, $thismonth, date( 1 ), $thisyear );
    
    // get the start day as an int (0 = Sunday, 1 = Monday, etc)
    $startday = jddayofweek( $jd , 0 );
    
    // get the month as a name
    $monthname = jdmonthname( $jd, 1 )

?>

Use double equal signs for comparisons, use single equal sign for assignment.
