This isn't really a PHP5 question, but anyway, here's an example

PHP Code:

function isDateBetween($dt_start, $dt_check, $dt_end){
  if(strtotime($dt_check) > strtotime($dt_start) && strtotime($dt_check) < strtotime($dt_end)) {
    return true;
  }
  return false;
}
isDateBetween("2004-01-01", "2004-01-02", "2004-01-03")
  and doStuffHooray();
