[Resolved] Match?

[fean0r]

Just a quickie (I hope)

$rdate = 200307;
$olddate = 20030722231624;

Say I was the check that $rdate = the 20030722231624 part for $olddate?

What is the best way to go about this?

you could use strstr() but I would suggest something like...

if(substr($olddate,0,strlen($rdate)) == $rdate)
{
    echo "Matched!";
}
else
{
    echo "No match here!";
}
