Comparing dates

[robertaccettura]

I have a mySQL database that stores a few things in datetime fields.

I need to check the date is before/after now:

if (date("Y-m-d  G:i:s") >= $eventbit['rsvpdate']) {
  echo "It's now past the data";
}

Doesn't seem to work

$eventbit['rsvpdate'] is the datetime string from mySQL.

Try this:

if( time() >= strtotime($eventbit['rsvpdate']) ) {

-- lilleman
