It would seem that your IF statement, as it is written below, evaluates to
true every time because I'm guessing that the hexadecimal value of the
string timeb is larger than the hexadecimal value of timea. Like I said,
just a guess.
I'm also guessing that you actually want to compare two values from your
database when you do your if ($tim1 < $tim2). Assuming that timea and timeb
are columns in your database and are included in the $result of your query,
can you just do:
if($myrow["timea"] < $myrow["timeb"]){
do stuff;
}
