Hello Hector,
I already removed the validator by one of the date fields.
Now the problem is on how to compare the dates. I created date objects from
all the date fields within the validator. But I don't know how to do the
last part (i.e comparing the dates.) I converted the field values to
zend_date objects. But when I print the date object to the screen i get:
array(1) { [0]=> object(Zend_Date)#109 (8) { ["_locale:private"]=> string(5)
"en_US" ["_fractional:private"]=> int(0) ["_precision:private"]=> int(3)
["_unixTimestamp:private"]=> string(10) "1262127600" ["_timezone:private"]=>
string(16) "Europe/Amsterdam" ["_offset:private"]=> int(-3600)
["_syncronised:private"]=> int(0) ["_dst:protected"]=> bool(true) } }
See here the updated code:
