Changing Birthday Year to Future Year

[Infinity101]

Hello, I'm trying to allow the birthday year to be further out than the current year. When done, a error will state, "invalid birthday entered" and not allow a change.

I edited in profile.php

	if ($birthday[2] > 1901 AND $birthday[2] = year ('Y')AND @checkdate($birthday[0], $birthday[1], $birthday[2]))

To

	if ($birthday[2] > 1901 AND $birthday[2] = 4500 AND @checkdate($birthday[0], $birthday[1], $birthday[2]))

This still doesn't work however.. I reviewed the templates and cannot find anywhere else where a year check is taken place. It seems like it should a simple fix, but I'm hoping someone can assist me.

I think you're just missing a '<':

if ($birthday[2] > 1901 AND $birthday[2] <= 4500 AND @checkdate($birthday[0], $birthday[1], $birthday[2]))

Sorry, you're right. I was typing the the tidbit and missed the <. The error occurs just the same still however. I even commented the code out entirely and the invalid DOB comes up. The check must be taking place in another file as well. I cannot find it for the life of me though.

Thanks for any help.

Yeah, it looks like there's a check in includes/class_dm_user.php and also in register.php.

Thank you very much. I tried searching all my files and couldn't find anything. Do you run a certain program and perform a search or did you know from experience?

Thanks!

I just did a search on all the php files for "1901". For the record, I think there were a few other places that check for year > 1901 but don't check for a max year.

I use something called Netbeans IDE, but it does a lot of other things so it's not what you'd want to install if you just want to search a bunch of files. (I'm not sure if you're asking what program to use or just how I found those checks).

You answered my questions well, thank you for helping me out.
