Display text/image Based on Date

[Anon]

Hello,

I would like to display some text or an image using an if-then statement... depending on the difference between today's date, and a future date in my database.

So what I would like is if the date in my database is within 31 days of today, show the text/image. The text/image should show for a total of 31 days as today's date gets closer to the date stored in the database. When todays date passes the date in the database, it should hide the text/image.

i.e. The date in the database = 2002-08-27
Today's Date = 2002-07-16 - Hide Image
Today's Date = 2002-07-29 - Show Image
Today's Date = 2002-08-18 - Show Image
Today's Date = 2002-08-28 - Hide Image

Can someone show me an if-then statement that can achieve this?

Thank you!!

Peter

$todays_date = getdate();

$last_date = getdate(strtotime( $your_date_returned_from_db ))

if (abs($last_date["yday"] - $todays_date["yday"]) < 31)
{ echo "<img src.........>"; }

Try that....might be issues....
