What would be my condition if the users membership date is already passed or expired? and I have the-CodePudding

<?php    
    //These came from my database    
    $_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'] = $row['dateOfMembershipEnds'];    
  
    if(empty($email)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Email is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(empty($password)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Password is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds']) >= date("Y-m-d")){    
      echo '<script>alert("Your Subscription Mr/Ms: '.$_SESSION['username'].' is already expired")        </script>';    
   ?>

I am expecting in my code that if the membership date is already expired the statement in my else if statement should be run.

CodePudding user response：

You're comparing strtotime with date() which will not give you results. Try this code and see if it works:

<?php    
    //These came from my database    
    $_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'] = $row['dateOfMembershipEnds'];    
  
    if(empty($email)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Email is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(empty($password)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Password is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds']) <= strtotime("now")){    
      echo '<script>alert("Your Subscription Mr/Ms: '.$_SESSION['username'].' is already expired")        </script>';    
   ?>

Also not relevant to your question, It seems like it may be more logical for all of these statements to be just if statements and not use else if.

CodePudding user response：

You can do it dateformat like this before compare

else if(date('Y-m-d', strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'])) >= date("Y-m-d"))

The code will look like this

    <?php    
//These came from my database    
$_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'] = $row['dateOfMembershipEnds'];    

if(empty($email)){    
  echo '<script>alert("Email is required!")</script>';    
}else if(empty($password)){    
  echo '<script>alert("Password is required!")</script>';    
}else if(date('Y-m-d', strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'])) >= date("Y-m-d")){    
  echo '<script>alert("Your Subscription Mr/Ms: '.$_SESSION['username'].' is already expired")        </script>'; 
    }
?>
