Marc,
When you take a date and do a strtotime you are converting it to an int which
you can compare to each other much easier. So for your above example you would
be best doing.
define('WSOFFBEGIN','09/16/2012');
$jes = 01/03/2012;
if ( strtotime($jes) < strtotime(WSOFFBEGIN) )
{
$error = " MUST begin after " . WSOFFBEGIN . "\n";
}

Thanks for the reply.
Every example on comparing dates in PHP that I found uses the "strtotime"
function which I am using. What other type can I use?
When is this example below supposed to work?
// your first date coming from a mysql database (date fields)
$dateA = '2008-03-01 13:34';
// your second date coming from a mysql database (date fields)
$dateB = '2007-04-14 15:23';
if(strtotime<http://www.php.net/strtotime>($dateA) >
strtotime<http://www.php.net/strtotime>($dateB)){
// bla bla
}
Thanks

Hi.
date returns a string
You should compare a different type for bigger/smaller than

I am comparing to dates.
define('WSOFFBEGIN','09/16/2012');
$jes = 01/03/2012;
if ( date("m/d/Y", strtotime($jes)) < date("m/d/Y", strtotime(WSOFFBEGIN)) )
{
$error = " MUST begin after " . WSOFFBEGIN . "\n";
}
I cannot figure out why the $error is being assigned inside the if statement,
since the statement should be false. 01/03/2012 is not less than 09/16/2012.
Marc
And hopefully put quotes around 01/03/2012.
