PHP compare date(s)

[diameter0101]

Compare 2 dates:

 

$date1 = strtotime("+6 months"); (6 months from now on)

$date2 = strtotime("02/2017"); (in format month/YEAR)

 

I need to compare if $date2 is larger than $date1 ...

 

if($date2 >= $date1)

{

 

}

You also need to work out how to ask a question 

 

What's the issue you are having? what's your actual code (not the pseudo you have posted)? What's the expected result and? what's the actual result? What have you tried thus-far? Do you need to check if date2 is "greater than" or do you need to check if date2 is "greater than or equal to" (because you claim one and show the other)?

 

Oh, and welcome to the PHPFreaks Forums

You need "2017/02" to convert it to a valid timestamp
