As an addition to the function contributed by </Life>.org:
You may want to use different date format "YYYY-MM-DD" like "2006-02-01",
because
a) it's default for mySQL and
b) relatively easily retrieved from MSSQL if you use CONVERT function with style=ODBC canonical,
which gives yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss(24h) style
Finally function looks like:
<?php
function dateCheck($date, $yearepsilon=5000) { // inputs format is "YYYY-MM-DD" ONLY !
if (count($datebits=explode('-',$date))!=3) return false;
$year = intval($datebits[0]);
$month = intval($datebits[1]);
$day = intval($datebits[2]);
if ((abs($year-date('Y'))>$yearepsilon) || // year outside given range
($month<1) || ($month>12) || ($day<1) ||
(($month==2) && ($day>28+(!($year%4))-(!($year%100))+(!($year%400)))) ||
($day>30+(($month>7)^($month&1)))) return false; // date out of range
return checkdate($month,$day,$year );
}
?>
