Help please

[saint4]

i have a code like this

if ($cronOdd['ends']<=$Maintime&&$cronOdd['status']=='Open'){

the rest of the code after just closes the Odd job and emails the poster that it has closed.

the $Maintime is gmdate("d-m-Y H:i:s");

the code above works fine for closing odd jobs within 2005 but now if someone has an end date that is 12-01-2006 12:22:23 for example. it closes it by if the day has reached (i figured out).

is there anyway this can be fixed with the current $Maintime as i use this to display the time aswel.

or is there a way where if i someone gave days (for example - >13) in 13 days time the odd job closes

Your dates would sort better if you put the year first instead of the day: "2006-01-12 12:22:23" comes after "2005-12-31 23:59:60", but "31-12-2005 23:59:60" comes after "12-01-2006 12:22:23". (That's one reason why the ISO standard is what it is.)

It's also often easier to use timestamps instead of formatted date strings for everything except when you actually want to display a formatted date: strtotime("+13 days", $timestamp) would take $timestamp and return a new timestamp with thirteen days added.
