OK, so here is the deal. I've been working on this the past few days, and it doesn't seem to want to work, and I can't figure it out. It's a bit messy, and I apologize for that, but I'm stumped.
I'm trying to get the date calculation function to run after the lists create, but it doesn't seem to want to work, and I can't really figure out why. I've also noticed that the commands below the functions such as :
"echo '<p>Today is ' . date ('l') . '. The current time is ' . date ('g:i a') . '.</p>';"
don't end up executing, and I was hoping someone could shed some light on this for me. Can't really figure out why this isn't working. By the way, this script is designed to see which date is greater than another date. Thanks!

I'm also trying to get the last date selected, that was sent to the server, to pop back up as the selected date as the script executes again, however I am fairly sure I know why this is not working, and have not got around to messing with it yet. (This works with the years, as it is numerical)
