[sstangle73]

the function:

function emailTaken($email){
   global $conn;
   if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()){
      $email = addslashes($email);
   }
   $qe = "select email from users where email = '$email'";
   $resulte = mysql_query($qe, $conn);
   return (mysql_numrows($resulte) > 0);
}
function birthday($birthday){   
list($month,$day,$year) = explode("-",$birthday);  

$today = getdate();   
$age = $today['year']-$year;   
if($month >= $today['mon'] && $day >= $today['mday']) {   

$age--; 

} 

return $age;  
} 

takes the birthday 10-11-1992 and returns 15 when it should be 14 can anyone see the error?

I think you are supposed to have less thans, instead of greater thans.

Well this part:

 

$month >= $today['mon'] && $day >= $today['mday']

 

Wouldn't work all the time. This only works if the month and day are bigger than the birthday. Today being the 28th and the birthday you are testing the 11th that routine wouldn't work.

 

I think you need to add another check level.

Yeah it's more like :

if(($month >= $today['mon']) || ($month=$today['mon'] && $day >= $today['mday'])){
