I cannot figure out why the $error is being assigned inside the if
statement, since the statement should be false. 01/03/2012 is not
less than 09/16/2012.
You shouldn't be comparing the date strings, but the UNIX timestamp values:
define('WSOFFBEGIN','09/16/2012');
$jes = 01/03/2012;
if ( strtotime($jes) < strtotime(WSOFFBEGIN) )
{
$error = " MUST begin after " . WSOFFBEGIN . "\n";
}
