massive set of ifs

[Desbrina]

I have 2 pieces of code i'd like to make shorter

The first set is this

$year1 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($row['joined_scouting']." +12 months"));
	$year2 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year1." +12 months"));
	$year3 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year2." +12 months"));
	$year4 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year3." +12 months"));
	$year5 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year4." +12 months"));
	$year6 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year5." +12 months"));
	$year7 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year6." +12 months"));
	$year8 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year7." +12 months"));
	$year9 = date("d-m-Y", strtotime($year8." +12 months"));

$year1 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year1)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year1."</strong>" : $year1 ;
$year2 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year2)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year2."</strong>" : $year2 ;
$year3 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year3)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year3."</strong>" : $year3 ;
$year4 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year4)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year4."</strong>" : $year4 ;
$year5 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year5)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year5."</strong>" : $year5 ;
$year6 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year6)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year6."</strong>" : $year6 ;
$year7 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year7)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year7."</strong>" : $year7 ;
$year8 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year8)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year8."</strong>" : $year8 ;
$year9 = (date("m-Y", strtotime($year9)) == date("m-Y")) ? "<strong>".$year9."</strong>" : $year9 ;

and the second set is this

if(($row['section'] == 1) && ($user->check_perm($user->data['mem_id'], 45) == 1) && ($user->check_perm($user->data['mem_id'], 10) == 1) )

[dagon]

here is a start, arrays and loops look like the best approach for you

$year=array();

for($i = 1 ; $i<=9 ; $i++){

if($i==1){
	$y = $row['joined_scouting'];
}else{
	$y = $year[$i-1];
}

$year[$i] = date("d-m-Y",strtotime($y." +12 months"));
if(date("m-Y",strtotime($year[$i]))==date("m-Y")){
	$year[$i] = "<strong>".$year[$i]."</strong>";
}
}

then you can foreach() loop through the year array in the 2nd part
