Logic Question

[aubinhick990]

This is a PHP website....

Okay, I have these variables...

PHP Code:

$itemE_year
    $itemE_month
    $itemE_day
    $itemE_hour
    $itemE_minute
    $itemE_ampm

    $year = date("Y");
    $month = date("m");
    $day = date("d");
    
    $hour = date("h");
    $minute = date("i");
    $ampm = date("A"); 


Basically they're self-explanatory....the $itemE_x is just a number being assigned via the contents of a text file.

Now, my question is what logic would I need if I wanted to check if the Item's year/month/day and hour/minute has passed my server's year/month/day, hour/minute.

This is the logic I've come up with but it doesn't work quite right...

PHP Code:

if(  (($year >= $itemE_year)) )
{

    if($month == $itemE_month)
    {
      if($day >= $itemE_day)
         {
        $DISPBOX = "false";
        echo "Time has passed!";
         }
    } 

    if( (($hour >= $itemE_hour) and ($minute >= $itemE_minute)) and ($ampm == $itemE_ampm) )
{
Whatever else I'm doing....
} 


Any suggestions? Thanks a ton!
