The end user gets to chose their date format, and so if I cannot reverse their arbitrary date format into a timestamp then I have no chance of ensuring that dates are correct. This seems like a really fundamentally bad thing about PHP :(Seems like a fundamental flaw in your program. If the user enteres 01/02/03, what date is that? 2003? January? February? 1st or 2nd? -- ---John Holmes... Amazon Wishlist: www.amazon.com/o/registry/3BEXC84AB3A5E/ php|architect: The Magazine for PHP Professionals – www.phparch.com
