What I want is something that will check if a date is valid..

For example you can not set the day as 31 when theres only 30 in the month..

Would this be possible within php??

Thanks

The Solution...

PHP Code:

<?
function isDateValid($value) { 
$strData = strtok($value, "/"); 
$intCount = 1; 
while ($strData) { 
if ($intCount == 1) { 
$tmpmonth = $strData; 
} 
if ($intCount == 2) { 
$tmpday = $strData; 
} 
if ($intCount == 3) { 
$tmpyear = $strData; 
} 
$intCount = $intCount + 1; 
$strData = strtok("/"); 
}  
if (checkdate($tmpday,$tmpmonth,$tmpyear)) { 
return "Y"; 
} else { 
return "N"; 
} 
} 

/* sample use: */ 
/*Date format : dd/mm/yyyy */
$date = "28/2/2004"; 
if (isDateValid($date) == "Y") { 
echo ("valid date");
} else { 
echo ("invalid date");
} 
?>
