[support] display/hide a cck text field based on the input cck date field

[crazy guru]

Hi Francesco,

Thanks for your time and the reply. As far as i know, i can refer to a cck
field ( in computed field) as $node->field_data[0]['value']; but i am also
wondering how to refer a cck field in node body with php input. according to
the suggestion given by "Marcus" (http://drupal.org/node/466694), i am
trying to use some php code to hide and display a cck field in node body.

Beside this, here is the code i have used for computed field to display and
hide a cck field.

$content1 = $node->field_data1[0]['value'];
$content2 = $node->field_data2[0]['value'];
$t=getdate();
$today=date('D, m/d/Y - H:s',$t[0]);
$due_date = $node->field_whatisdate[0]['value'];
if ($due_date >= $today){
  $node_field[0]['value'] = $content1;
}else{
  $node_field[0]['value'] =  $content2;
}

*Display:*
$display = $node_field_item['value'];

This is how i tried but no luck. i still have issues. please check with
this. Thanks in advance.

With regards
Mohan
