Well, it's all in htdocs/view/access.php.  You're on your own here,
because I don't have time to try it & test it.

You'll notice there's a strptime function in that file that's defined
inside a "if (!function_exists('strptime')) {" block.

That's the one you want to use.  But in your case, the function strptime
*does* already exist, so the function defined there is not used.

If you were to simply pull that function definition out of the if block,
you'd probably get an error saying you can't redefine the function with
the name 'strptime'.

So what I'd do is pull the function definition out of the block, but
rename it to something else like say 'strptime1', and then go through
the rest of the file, and find all the calls to 'strptime', and change
them to your new name.

I just did a quick search, and conveniently it seems that's the only
file you'll need to change.

Title:
  From/To Date Validation not working for VIEWS

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Mahara: 1.3.3
  SunOS java 5.11
  PHP 5.2.6
  MySQL
  Chrome 9.0.597.102, Mozilla 3.6.13, Safari 5.0.3

  When you go to EDIT ACCESS for a particular View and add any of the following:
  - Public
  - Logged In Users
  - Friends
  - Secret URL
  - A particular individual

  AND include a FROM and TO Date where the FROM date IS before the TO
  Date and the TO Date is in the future, you receive an error message:
  "The stop date cannot be in the past" which is clearly not correct.
