Having Problem with Date

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

l have a submit buttom where user have the possibility to add a date to specify when his message should be made reachable online.

I have seen a bug which l am not having a clue to solve and l need help.

Any time a user tries to edit his text, the edit formular opens with a given dateon 1999.11.30 and a dateof of 1999.11.30

For God sake l got no clue where these date digits are coming from.
This outdated problem doesn´t allow ediiting to save well.

Enclosed is my code.

MAybe one could figure out where l am going wrong.


Thanks in advance

Code: if(isset($_POST['save'])) {
// Saving Edited Formular

$message = "";
$maintext = htmlentities($_POST['maintext']);
$shorttext = $_POST['shorttext'];
$title = htmlentities($_POST['title']);
$linked = $_POST['linked'];
$dateon = ($_POST['startdate']);
$dateoff = ($_POST['enddate']);

if($lang == "ger") {
if(! empty($dateon)) {
$on = explode(".", $dateon);
if(count($on) == 3 && checkdate($on[1], $on[0], $on[2]))
$dateon = date("Y-m-d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $on[1], $on[0], $on[2]));
else
$status = 5;
}
if(! empty($dateoff)) {
$off = explode(".", $dateoff);
if(count($off) == 3 && checkdate($off[1], $off[0], $off[2]))
$dateoff = date("Y-m-d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $off[1], $off[0], $off[2]));
else
$status = 5;

}
}

$status = 5;
}

if(!empty($dateoff)) {

else
$status = 5;
}
}
if(empty($status)) {
if(isset($parent)) {
$resDate = my_sql_query("SELECT date_on, date_off FROM navi WHERE nid=$parent", "");
if(isset($resDate[0]))
$status = 2;
$catDateOn = $resDate[1][0]['date_on'];
$catDateOff = $resDate[1][0]['date_off'];
}
if(!empty($catDateOn) && !empty($dateon) && $catDateOn > $dateon) {
$status = 7;
}
else if(!empty($catDateOff) && !empty($dateoff) && $catDateOff < $dateoff) {
$status = 8;
}

}


The Html Formular

Code:
$result = my_sql_query("SELECT date_on, date_off FROM navi WHERE nid=$sel AND is_campaign IS NOT NULL","");
if(!isset($result[0])) {
#$dateon = $result[1][0]["date_on"];
#$dateoff = $result[1][0]['date_off'];
if($lang == "ger") {
if($dateon != "") {
$on = explode("-", $dateon);
if(count($on) == 3)
$dateon = date("d.m.Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, $on[1], $on[2], $on[0]));
}
if($dateoff != "") {
$off = explode("-", $dateoff);
if(count($off) == 3)
$dateoff = date("d.m.Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, $off[1], $off[2], $off[0]));
}
} else {
if($dateon != "") {
$on = explode("-", $dateon);
if(count($on) == 3)
$dateon = date("Y-m-d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $on[1], $on[2], $on[0]));
}
if($dateoff != "") {
$off = explode("-", $dateoff);
if(count($off) == 3)
$dateoff = date("Y-m-d", mktime(0, 0, 0, $off[1], $off[2], $off[0]));
}
}
}
