Comment:

I want a sample Date validation script using if loops.
The script should first compare "year".If the year is lesser than the current year,It should go for "month" checking.
I have the script that splits the date into year,month and date.I want only the checking part.
My if loop checking is not work properly.
Can you show the right way of checking?
Regards
Dave
