date comparision

Hello,
I am trying to compare two dates which are in variables and i am not getting the correct result as expected.

$first_date = '07/19/2007'
$second_date='07/20/2007'

Can you please suggest how to i check whether they are equal or not.
if ($first_date -eq $second_date) condition is not giving the correct result.

Thanks,
Sateesh

MAXDB_NUM_ROWS(3)							 1							 MAXDB_NUM_ROWS(3)

maxdb_num_rows - Gets the number of rows in a result

       Procedural style

SYNOPSIS
int maxdb_num_rows (resource $result) DESCRIPTION
Object oriented style int$maxdb->num_rows () Returns the number of rows in the result set. The use of maxdb_num_rows(3) depends on whether you use buffered or unbuffered result sets. In case you use unbuffered resultsets maxdb_num_rows(3) will not correct the correct number of rows until all the rows in the result have been retrieved. RETURN VALUES
Returns number of rows in the result set. Note If the number of rows is greater than maximal int value, the number will be returned as a string. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Object oriented style <?php $maxdb = new maxdb("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB"); /* check connection */ if (maxdb_connect_errno()) { printf("Connect failed: %s ", maxdb_connect_error()); exit(); } if ($result = $maxdb->query("SELECT cno, name FROM hotel.customer ORDER BY name")) { /* determine number of rows result set */ $row_cnt = $result->num_rows; printf("Result set has %d rows. ", $row_cnt); /* close result set */ $result->close(); } /* close connection */ $maxdb->close(); ?> Example #2 Procedural style <?php $link = maxdb_connect("localhost", "MONA", "RED", "DEMODB"); /* check connection */ if (maxdb_connect_errno()) { printf("Connect failed: %s ", maxdb_connect_error()); exit(); } if ($result = maxdb_query($link, "SELECT cno, name FROM hotel.customer ORDER BY name")) { /* determine number of rows result set */ $row_cnt = maxdb_num_rows($result); printf("Result set has %d rows. ", $row_cnt); /* close result set */ maxdb_free_result($result); } /* close connection */ maxdb_close($link); ?> The above example will output something similar to: Result set has 15 rows. SEE ALSO
