[PHP] time stuff

Was wondering if anyone could help? suppose the date is 12-10-01 -- $timestamp = time(); //this is the "sent on" date $yd_expl = explode(':',08-01-01); $today=mktime(0,0,0,strftime('%m',$timestamp),strftime('%d',$timestamp),strftime('%y',$timestamp));

[PHP] Comparing Dates

I'm trying to do a check on a date, to see if it's after the current date, so basically i'm doing an if(date("d-m-y")>"15-12-01") { do something } I know that's obviously not the right way to do it, but can someone help me out?
