Question

I am trying to write a regex expressions in PHP to validate two variables:

1). $months range from (1 - 31)

2). $days range from (1 - 12)

How could you write that regex expression for each ?

Answer 1

You would be better off using simple php opperators,eg

if( $months > 0 && $months < 32 )

But the issue you will have is some months only have some many days. Use this instead:
