[SOLVED] close after date.

[grlayouts]

Say i have a page that after the 25th of the month i dont want people to access. using Date is this possible? i had one for certain days but it didnt work out

 

<?php
$d=date("D");
if ($d=="Thu" || $d=="Sat" || $d=="Sun" || $d=="Mon" || $d=="Wed") {

exit;
}else{?>

<?php } ?>

yup, lotta options eaiset would be to return the data in a format of

yyyymmdd and then say

if($date > 20071125){

die("Page is Closed.");

}

that is a good list of how to make a date return how you want

but i want it open the next month form 1st till 25th lets say..

[cooldude832]

then return the Day part only and test if day >25

 

[grlayouts]

ie..

 

$date=date("d");
if ($date >  {
exit;
}else{

this might work

<?php
$openDate = 20071201;
$closeDate = 20071225;
$todaysDate = date(Ymd);
if($closeDate<$todaysDate){
die("PAGE IS CLOSED");
}elseif($openDate<$todaysDate){
(some kind of refresh to the page you want it to go to.)

}
?>

 

at least i think that will work. Dunno hope it helps

[cooldude832]

yes, but the else isn't needed as an exit stops execution I prefer to use die, or use else/if and let the error be large then the die part of it

[grlayouts]

yeah but doesnt solve the fact it only works for one month.

[cooldude832]

yeah but doesnt solve the fact it only works for one month.

the D date("D") will return the day of the month that is MONTH INDEPENDENT it doesn't care if its a 25th of january or april just tells you its a 25th.  that is what you asked for

i'm taking about

<?php
$openDate = 20071201;
$closeDate = 20071225;
$todaysDate = date(Ymd);
if($closeDate<$todaysDate){
die("PAGE IS CLOSED");
}elseif($openDate<$todaysDate){
(some kind of refresh to the page you want it to go to.)

}
?>

open and close dates have years..

???

 

or are we taking about the one above that i said, but didn't work? lol

[cooldude832]

use what I said

<?php
if($date("d") > 25){
//Page closed
}
?>
