I have a set of date selectors which then people can use to search between two dates. Even though they say FROM and TO, people will undoubtedly put the dates in the wrong order on occassion.

hmm, not sure, maybe a temp variable is the best, but you could also do the following: <?php $from = 14; $to = 12; /* 1 */ $array = array("from" => (($from > $to) ? $to : $from), "to" => (($to < $from) ? $from : $to)); echo $array["from"], " - ", $array["to"], "<br />"; /* 2 - maybe you're even getting an array as input <form method=post><input type="text" name="date[0]"> <input type="text" name="date[1]"><input type=submit></form> */ $array = array(0 => 14, 1 => 12); if($array[0] > $array[1]) $array = array_reverse($array); echo $array[0], " - ", $array[1], "<br />"; ?>

die ("Hey idiot, go back and switch the dates you've entered"); :)

would be nice anyway :) daniel /*-- daniel beulshausen - daniel@php4win.de using php on windows? http://www.php4win.de
