Date Month Search Queries
I'm putting together a news script and in the news archive, I have a section where you can display the news by the date, or in my case, the month.

Here's my query: PHP Code:

Convert Date() Month Numeric Into Month Full Name.
date("m"); returns the following result for this month... "02" That is fine and dandy, but the problem is, I need to change 02 into February, and not by changing it to date("F"); I need to use the date function to convert the supplied number of 02 into February, is there a way of going about this logically without a bunch of if/else statements??

Multiple Select Box Search Queries
I am trying to create an elegant query together with a multiple select box, tbl_level linked by a foreign key. Sample code below: $sql = "SELECT DISTINCT Firstname,.... FROM ....

Delimiting Timestamp Queries To Show Only Date, No Time
I can't find anything on google or even searching the forums that comes remotely close to being understandable by me. I have a MySQL timestamp(current timestamp) I'm using to date every entry. HOWEVER, I can't figure out how to get rid of the time portion and only display the date.
Month Selection Dependant On Current Month
Basically I'm using a combo box to allow a user to select a month to see accounts stats for that month, so at the moment I am using the script below which will display all months up 1 less month than the current month (as obviously months after this do not have account details yet) However I want to allow the user to have a full 12 months to select from so if the current month was Feb 06 they could see Feb05, march05,April05.... up to Jan06...

Date Search
I'm trying to search a range of dates on a sql server using PHP. Giving it one date and it will look for something X many days before and after that particular date. The problem i'm running into is the fact that the sql server reads dates like yyyy-mm-dd and php does it mm-dd-yyyy. I'm trying to use the sql commands to search for the date, but the problem i'm having with that is my dates have dashes while if i use the add_date() or sub_date() function the input don't use dashes. take a look $sql="SELECT * FROM search_data WHERE date_sub($date,interval $number_of_days day) < $date AND date_add($date,interval $number_of_days day) >= $date ORDER BY file_name";

PostgreSQL Queries, Storing Results Instead Of Multiple Queries
I have a script that does multiple SQL queries. So I have something like $result = pg_query($my_query); After this query I tend to loop through like this to get the result: while ($entry=pg_fetch_row($result)) { //do stuff } But my question is, how can I make a copy of the result? So I don't run the query more than once.

Im having to do a bit of string manipulation and with the given values I need help trying to find out the last day of the month...

Count The Hits From Different IP Each Month
I have a table (url) which counts the number of hits of my sites for each month. Now I want to know how many hits from each IP address for each month. How should I design the table? I want to design the table (IP)which contains 13 columns, the first one is IP, from the second to thirteenth, each column is for a month from January to December, but it is redundant since the url table already has the month columns. What is the efficient way to design the IP table?
Select Using Current Month
I run a website with a news posting part to the site (news from a few members not current affairs). It has occurred to me that the collection of Next & Prev links at the bottom of the viewing page has started to get rather large. This is probably because it generates links for every 4 posts that are in the database (4 articles are shown per page). What i would ideally like to do is be able to show all posts from the current month in the main page and have an archive page that shows the rest. Now heres the prob that i have run into. I store the date for each of the posts in a datetime field. When this is selected from the mysql query i format it to make it look like an English time (Rather than the time that the server shows). Now im not too sure what sort of query to use.
Month From Week Number?
Has anybody here ever made or seen a function which when passed year and week number in that year returns month ? actually what I want is all records from db starting from six months back till now and group them by weeks, and some weeks may have no record so they won't appear in resultset. But I have to display zero against these weeks. display has to be in form of Number of Records in Week # x of Month y e.g Number of Records in Week 2 x of Month Jan So my solution is to get records from db by this query: .. where abs(Week(Now()) - Week(RecTime)) <= 26 this works ok but I don't have any idea of which month and week of month was 6 months ago. So I decided to get week number and year of 6 months back and then write my function get month form this info.
How Do You Select All Records In The Month You Are In?
