Passing Date Via Form For Mysql Date Type


I've created a database for tracking our paper inventory. Basically when an individual takes paper, or envelopes the quantity is entered into the database, along with some other items. This all works great.

I also have two fields that use the "Date" and "Time" types for holding the date and time of the initial transaction.

I've created a seperate php script that we will use for our "end of month" reports. The script goes through and adds up the cost of each "purchase" between a specified time frame (1 may thru 31 may for example).

This script works for me as long as I perform my query with my condition formated as such:

Passing A Variable Form A Form To A Mysql Query In A Php Script
I have a form set up with a dropdown list of values for a field "Genre" in my database

I can pass the variable to my php script. I know this because I use:

$Genre = $_POST['Genre'];

echo "<h1> Query result for Genre = ","$Genre", "</h1>";

And the page prints the appropriate value chosen from the form.

I'm trying to use the $Genre variable in a mysql query to select records which match.

My mysql query works when I use the following code:

Form Default Date
I have a MYSql database with an ASP VB form. I set up a text field and set the default value as: <%=date()%> but when I click the button to insert the record it tells me to check the sql error and lists my date field. My MySQL date type is date, not datetime. I am using Dreamweaver MX.

How do I set the default date so that it inserts correctly into mysql? Apparently I can't set the default value for the date field in the database structure because I link with an odbc driver.

I Need To Convert Date Type To String Type
I need to retrieve a Date type data from the database and present the data in my GUI as a String type.

I've tried like this :

ResultSet rs;
Date data;

data = (String)rs.getDate("ColumnName");
gui_label.setText(data);

but they say inconvertible types...

Can someone teach me the way so that I can retrieve Date type data from the database and present it in the GUI as a String type.

Extract Date Into Multiple Form Fields
I'm storing standard datetime values in a MySQL table (i.e. 1999-12-31 23:59:59). A query such as:

"SELECT thedate FROM tablename"

returns the expected 1999-12-31 23:59:59

How can I extract the indivdual elements into separate PHP variables like:

theyear = 1999
themonth = 12
theday = 31
thehour = 23
theminute = 59
thesecond = 59

I've searched through the forums and thought DATE_FORMAT would be the ticket, but so far haven't been able to find anything that addresses this particular issue.

Most Efficient Date Field Type For Selects?
I have searched this forum seeking the answer to this question, to no avail.

I am making an events diary that will have a lot of entries. Entries will be entered in all kinds of order, including multiple events spanning a year or so.

Even multiple events of the same type will be individual entries. (e.g. weekly chess club meeting every weds at 7pm will be 52 entries)

My question is : Which is the best format to store dates?

Native mysql date type
Integer timestamp
A.n.other?

I suppose a worst case scenario is imagine I want to generate a calendar for July (31 days) and I want to show how many events there are for each day.

1st July (13 events)
2nd July (22 events)

and so on ... it is possible that any given day could have up to 100 entries.

What in your opinion is the best column type to use and ss there any kind of Indexing I can use to speed up select by dates? Or any other tip or trick you'd be prepared to share with me?

Date :: Select X Number Of Months Ahead Of Current Date
I am trying to query dates stored in my mysql database...
eg:

2005-12-13 (13th Dec 2005)
2006-03-14 (14th Mar 2005)

My SQL query needs to fetch all the records which are X number of months ahead of the current date. eg: I query it saying "get me all records where the date is 1 month from now.... I have used this

(MONTH(date_review)-MONTH(CURDATE()))

which returns 1 - so this is ok - as it's November, and december is one month away.... but when I ask for 3 months - it wont get the records...

I know I somehow need to add the months on - but how do I do this with the year attached too?

Output Multiple Records From Start Date To End Date?
Firstly I'm using MySQL 5 on Win2003.

I have a DB table that has multple columns, but the 2 columns I am interested in are DATE_START and DATE_END. So I'll have many records in the DB and the values in these fields will be anything like:

DATE_START=2006-10-23
DATE_END=2006-10-26

Or if its a 1 day thing it will be sumin like:

DATE_START=2006-10-23
DATE_END=2006-10-23

Is there anyway I can output multiple records from the DB for that one record between those dates? For example, the first record above would output:

TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-23
TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-24
TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-25
TITLE | SUMMARY | 2006-10-26

So basically I get a loop of all dates between the start and end date?

Before anyone asks, no I can't loop through this in the code! I have a calendar, and all the dates are created and I just need to populate these dates with the records... and I won't go into detail, but without querying every day, this is the best way by far to do it... just need to know if it can be done?

Latest Date Entry + Future Date
My requirement is data to be added to database depending on dates. Like If the user wants to add data for the next 10 days,the data should be added with a corresponding column containing the next 10 days' dates.

Then if he logs in tomorrow and wishes to add data for another 100 days,it should find the last date added and then add data with the next 100 dates starting from that date.

Also I would want to display these dates to the user.So can you suggest which type to be used for database field and also the date functions(mysql as well as php) to be achieved.

Let me put it more clearly.

"select the last date(which might be future dates) entered in the database";

If the date is Oct10 and the user wants to add entries for Oct 11,12 13

"insert into table values('data','oct11')"
......
......
likewise for Oct12 and 13

The format I need is just year,month and day.No time is required.

Select Date Date Functions

year_id (int)
year_name (var) ex:RAT
year_starts (date) ex: 1917-01-23
year_ends (date) ex: 1918-02-10

so when i want to find out what year somebody was born ($birthdate), i wanted the database to do something like:

"SELECT * FROM year WHERE year.year_starts >= $birthdate AND year.year_end <= $birthdate"

I can get it to select from either year.year_starts >= $birthdate (alone) or year.year_end <= $birthdate
