How To Delete All Database Entires Older Than 30 Days?
One of the fields in my database is called ad_date which is of date type and stored dates int he format YYYY-MM-DD. I would like to perform a DELETE SQL statement in my PHP script which deletes all records with an ad_date value older than 30 days.

I knoy this is also an SQL question, but it is the 'older than 30 days' part which I'm stuck with and so figured it would be better in the PHP forum as I think I need to use PHP to calculate todays date - 30 days.

Calculate Number Of Days Between Two Dates
I have people posting ads and when the ad is posted I have two fields populated at that time:

date_created
date_expired

With the date expired being 7 days after the date created. Both are in this format: 03/12/07

What I am doing is preventing someone from posting more than one ad per 7 days. I'm validating against their email address for that. But I want to display the date that they would be eligible as well as determine if they are eligible to post or not which would require comparing today's date with probably using the now() function against the date_expired in the database. If the today's date is past then no problem. If not, then it would display an error. Code:

Migrating Existing Site From Older Version Of PHP & MySQL
There's an existing website (on a single box running Linux, Apache, PHP 4.1.2, MySQL 3.23.58) that I need to migrate over to another setup (2 boxes, the web/app server running MS 2003 Server, IIS6, PHP 5.2.4 and a DB box running on SuSE, MySQL 5.0.26). I've gotten the connection between the two new boxes to work, but a lot of the code from the original website doesn't seem to work.

Is there anything obvious I should know about migrating code from the older setup to the newer one, which is running different versions of PHP and MySQL. I've attached 2 php files (both renamed to txt). When I bring up the dir_master.php file, the only thing that comes up is the Name, Affiliation, and Department headers from the contents.php file.... nothing gets displayed from the MySQL database. Like I said, I have been able to pull stuff out of the DB using code I wrote myself to test it, so I'm sure the PHP to MySQL connection is working.

I think the issue might be with the PHP code and how the HTML is embedded in it, but like I said, this isn't my field of expertise. I'm hoping there's a quick syntax fix that I can use without having to completly rewrite everything.... especially since there's a number of PHP files that will need to get changed.

Update All Records In A Database 364 Days

Does anyone know a command that I can update all records by 364 days?

Sort Results By Date/time, Limit 5 Database Entries Of Today &/or Upcoming Days
I'm designing a website for my fraternity and in the database I have entries which contain past events, todays events, and upcoming events.  My problem is that I can not figure out how to sort the query results to display:
 
1) only past events based on the CURRENT DATE
2) only the events which fall on the CURRENT DATE or after, limiting the results to 5 entries
3) all events that fall on CURRENT DATE or afterwards

Example:   
Today is  September 15, 2007

Problem 1) Displaying all events that happened before September 15, 2007
Problem 2) Displaying only 5 results that fall on September 15, 2007 or after
Problem 3) Displaying all events that are happening on or after September 15, 2007

And obviously I would like the CURRENT DATE to change depending on what date it is, currently.

Calculating Dates From A Date In The Database?
I`m using this format of dates:

$entry_date = strftime("%B %e, %Y %H:%M:%S", time());
And that time gets saved into the database (birth in ownedpets database):

$res = mysql_query("SELECT id, owner, pet_type, pet_name, birth, food, play, datetime FROM ownedpets WHERE id=$id");
$rows = mysql_fetch_row($res);
mysql_free_result($res);

So let`s say in this case, the database birth value ($rows[4]) is October 19 2007 20:00:00. What do I do to tell php to check to see if the current date (hours and all don`t matter) is 21 days after the $rows[4]?

Why I`m looking for this task:
For the pets system, if the pet is 21 days after it`s birth, it will be an adult. But if it is not 21 days after it`s birth, it will still be a baby.

MYSQL, PHP And Dates
I need to create a system where listings can be entered into a database and show when they were listed, and an expiration date. I will need to compare those listings with the current date that they are viewed on also in order to decide whether or not a listing is expired or not. So, if when I store the listing, I format the date with:

Expiration_date = "$yyyy-$dd-$dd" and store it as "INT" in mysql,
store the date added using date("YmdHis") as "INT",
could I then run a search using something like:

SELECT * FROM $table WHERE DAYOFWEEK(exp_date) > DAYOFWEEK(NOW()) and MONTH(exp_date) > MONTH(NOW()) and YEAR(exp_date) > YEAR(NOW());

Please let me know what you think, I am sort of confused on this one. I am pretty sure that I will use php's timestamp, but will need to be able to compare it to that of mysql's NOW().

MySQL DATETIME And PHP Dates
Is there an easy way of formatting a MySQL DATETIME field in PHP. At the
moment I'm using the code below, as using the returned DATETIME value from
the database with the date() function doesn't seem to work. I know I could
use the MySQL function date_format to format it before its returned but I
use a simply query (e.g. SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE colum = '$somevalue') and
a while loop to read all the variables in, so I don't think I can format it
before its returned.

$date1 = "2005-04-12 20:45:54";
$date_array = explode("-", $date1);
$year = $date_array[0];
$month = $date_array[1];
$day = $date_array[2];
$day = $day[0].$day[1];

PHP Conversion Of Dates From MySQL?
What's the best way to translate a date into "Monday June 25, 2001" format that has been pulled from MySQL (the date format of which is "2001-06-25")? PHP date/time functions all seem to be based on UNIX timestamp (seconds since 1/1/1970), but the MySQL timestamp is YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.

I've tried translating the MySQL date when I select and retrieve data by using the "SELECT DATE_FORMAT(columnName)" syntax but this simply creates a new column - different from "columnName". Ideally, I could pull a date from MySQL as a formatted date so that I could set a variable in one operation or discover a PHP function to handle this. The bothersome task of writing my own is translating the YYYY-MM-DD format into daynames and monthnames.
