Good to hear the suggestion seems to work out for you Smilie
Let me explain what it means:
Code:
while ( ytd_date !~ /^[01][0-9][0-3][0-9][901][0-9]$/ ) {

This is a so-called "regular expression" , which means that the number must contain 6 digits (each bracket pair represents a digit), where the
first one ([01]) may be 0 or 1,
the second ( [0-9]) between 0 and 9
the 3rd between 0 and 3 and
...
the 5th number ([901]) 9, 0 or 1.
..

So the modification changes ([901] to [0-9]) so that the 5th number may be between 0 and 9 inclusively.
