Hi

For thus like me who are old as dino's Very Happy

Born before 01/01/1970 I mean we need to use a special function to verify if a Birthdate is valid. Also MySQL provide a very nice option for dates to, handle partial date definition (year only month year....)
Using Basic Smarty PlugIn or validation could fail

I've designed this code I use in my site to verify the Date format.

[php:1:f93e7c798f]<?php
/**
* test if a value is a valid Gergorian date
* Valid Format are : jj/mm/aaaa (10)
* mm/aaaa (7)
* jj/mm (5)
* aaaa (4)
*
* @param string $value the value being tested
* @param boolean $empty if field can be empty
* @param array params validate parameter values
* @param array formvars form var values
*/
function smarty_validate_criteria_isGDate($value, $empty, &$params, &$formvars) {

if (strlen($value) == 0) return $empty;
else $date = explode("/",$value);

if (strlen($value) == 10) return checkdate($date[1],$date[0],$date[2]);
elseif (strlen($value) == 7) return checkdate($date[0],1,$date[1]);
elseif (strlen($value) == 5) return checkdate($date[1],$date[0],1900);
elseif (strlen($value) == 4) return checkdate(1,1,$value);
else return -1;

}
?>[/php:1:f93e7c798f]

Dates are considered to be in European Format, could be possible to handle also ISO Format or the strange US Format

Regards
