How to validade DATE ?

[ib4]

I wrote this function to validate dates and date with timestamps (no AM/PM support):

    /**
     * Validate date, use only 'Y-m-d' or 'Y-m-d H:i:s' format
     *
     * @param string $field
     * @param string $input date or datetime
     *
     * @param null   $param
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    protected function validate_date($field, $input, $param = null)
    {
        if (!isset($input[$field]) || $input[$field] == '') {
            return;
        }

        $cdate1 = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($input[$field]));
        $cdate2 = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime($input[$field]));


        if ($cdate1 != $input[$field] && $cdate2 != $input[$field]) {
            return array(
                'field' => $field,
                'value' => $input[$field],
                'rule'  => __FUNCTION__
            );
        }
    }

Resno, that's a pretty good solution for this. If you submit a pull request, I'll gladly merge it into the master branch.

Guilherme,

@resno has added a date validator that you can use, take a look at:
