Question 41576 in PHP Question posted in
Official manual can be found here.

What would be my condition if the users membership date is already passed or expired? and I have these kind of code: – PHP

<?php    
    //These came from my database    
    $_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'] = $row['dateOfMembershipEnds'];    
  
    if(empty($email)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Email is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(empty($password)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Password is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds']) >= date("Y-m-d")){    
      echo '<script>alert("Your Subscription Mr/Ms: '.$_SESSION['username'].' is already expired")        </script>';    
   ?>

I am expecting in my code that if the membership date is already expired the statement in my else if statement should be run.

    You’re comparing strtotime with date() which will not give you results. Try this code and see if it works:

    <?php    
    //These came from my database    
    $_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'] = $row['dateOfMembershipEnds'];    
  
    if(empty($email)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Email is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(empty($password)){    
      echo '<script>alert("Password is required!")</script>';    
    }else if(strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds']) <= strtotime("now")){    
      echo '<script>alert("Your Subscription Mr/Ms: '.$_SESSION['username'].' is already expired")        </script>';    
   ?>

    Also not relevant to your question, It seems like it may be more logical for all of these statements to be just if statements and not use else if.

    You can do it dateformat like this before compare

    else if(date('Y-m-d', strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'])) >= date("Y-m-d"))

    The code will look like this

        <?php    
//These came from my database    
$_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'] = $row['dateOfMembershipEnds'];    

if(empty($email)){    
  echo '<script>alert("Email is required!")</script>';    
}else if(empty($password)){    
  echo '<script>alert("Password is required!")</script>';    
}else if(date('Y-m-d', strtotime($_SESSION['dateOfMembershipEnds'])) >= date("Y-m-d")){    
  echo '<script>alert("Your Subscription Mr/Ms: '.$_SESSION['username'].' is already expired")        </script>'; 
    }
?>
