Not given your logic above, no.
You said "If it is past the current date then I am erroring out",
therefore 2005-09-30 00:00:00 > 2005-10-07 00:00:00 will NEVER error
out, because it will never be greater than the current timestamp in
seconds.
A = 2005-09-03 = 1,128,052,800
B = 2005-10-07 = 1,128,713,278 (approx, that's actually the value now)
So A will never be greater than B, hence you're always allowing the
transaction.
Cheers,
Rich
