php - Check if something is between two values?

Solution:

Off the top of my head, I don't know of a date comparison operator in PHP, but I would usestrtotime() on all three dates, then do simple mathematical comparisons.

<?php

$early_date = strtotime("02/02/2010");
$date = strtotime("02/04/2010");
$late_date = strtotime("02/10/2010");

if (($early_date < $date) && ($date < $late_date)) {
  echo "true";
}
Copy code

returns true.

Solution:

To do a comparison like this you need to do separate comparisons. If $d is the date you want to compare, $d1 is the earlier date, and $d2 is the later date, it would be something like:

if ((strtotime($d) > strtotime($d1)) and (strtotime($d) < strtotime($d2))) {
    return true;
} else {
    return false;
}
Copy code

Solution:

If past date one and before date two, then it's between them.

Solution:

the googles told me

if ( strtotime($date) > strtotime('22/09/2008') && strtotime($date) < strtotime('28/09/2008'))
