Date Dropdown From Mysql Date Entries
For the PHP gurus out there, here is what I want to do: create a dropdown list of available dates from a mysql database date entries. But the dropdown/s should have 3 separate fields in month, day and year which in effect shows only those months, days and years that have corresponding entries from the database.
Planning to use this in the archive section of an online news publication so people can select issues to view via dropdown list that have corresponding entries only.

Date Is Not Being Pulled From MYSQL Database, Instead Current Date Is Displayed!
I am having trouble pulling a date from a database using PHP at the <a href="http://www.mytuneslive.com/ameshkin69/"> following page.</a> Here is the code. As you can see, it is just making the date the current time. The values in the database are UNIX timestamp, and the DATE() function is used to convert from UNIX to readable date. Can <td width="55%" align="left" valign="top"><?php $row_comment['timestamp'] = date("n d Y g:i A");.....

Store Date In A Date Field In My MYSQL Data Table
I have a form with a feild that when clicked on pops up a calendar which I can select a date I wnat to insert into the field. The date inserted displays "03 Apr, 2007". I want to store that date in a date field in my MYSQL data table, a field named "f_date" set to date type. When I save the record the data field "f_date" displays "0000-00-00" which I take it the date input is not getting inserted to the table.

Count Entries After Date
I've been using a script to count votes for pictures. Every time somene votes it records their ip and date they voted. It adds a new line to the table for every vote. (picNum is the picture they are voting for)PHP Code: $query = "INSERT INTO kicks_voting (picture, ip, date) VALUES ('" . $_POST['picNum'] . "','" . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . "', '" . date('m.d.y') ."')"; Then when I want to see the total votes for a picture I use this script PHP Code: $query = 'SELECT ip FROM kicks_voting WHERE picture ="' . $picNum . '"' $result = mysql_query($query); mysql_num_rows($result); echo mysql_num_rows($result); What I need to do now is count only the votes that came in after a specific date. So I can show total votes, and then votes this month. I know there must be an easy way to do this.

Getting The Last Group Of Entries By Date
The part I'm having a brain fart over is how best to determine what's the freshest group of news entries from the db in the most efficient manner. I'm leaning towards using GROUP BY TO_DAYS(pubdate) ORDER BY pubdate DESC which I believe will organize the entries by day of the pubdate in descending order but then I need to create a WHERE clause that will extract the latest group without knowing what the pubdate of the group is.

UNIX Mktime To MySQL Date Or Date
A form that sends a starting date and an ending date. I have figured out how to tell the difference between the two and even rip the difference into an array because I need to compare the individual dates against a mySQL database to pull results from a particular date in a series. This is no problem. My problem is that teh mySQL database uses DATE as a field definition and this can not be changed. I managed to pull the date differences using some cleaver mktime stuff but no I do not know how to get this 1072242000 into this 2003-12-24... Is there a function that reverses the mktime result into a usable date format? I would take anything at this point and I can explode and then array it to get what I want - but there has to be something. Code:

Convert Date To A MySQL Acceptable Date
I've got a date that looks like this: 06/08/2007 AM I'm trying to convert it to a MySQL acceptable date so it can be inserted into the data and read as normal MySQL dates would read so I can use my date searching functions. I use a lot of -30 days searches and stuff like that. As I insert the records into the database (which come in from a .csv file) the "SCHEDULED_DATE" looks like that above but that, as we all know, won't work with things like 'SCHEDULED_DATE > $onemonth' ($onemonth being a date that is a month ago). So while the records are imported I have been trying to take that date and convert it into a usable MySQL date. Although my attempts have completely failed. Here is one of the newest things I have used, which didn't work and I really don't know why. Code:

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. Ok so now I've been very redundant in my explanation of my problem here is the code and a link to what that particular page looks like. Code:

Read Today's Date Print Tomorrow's Date
I've got a small script that writes a random number and the date to a text file. Then the script opens this text file and if date = date from this text file something must happen. If something happened this script must open this text file again and replace it with a new random number and tomorrow's date. <?php $date = date("d-m-Y"); mt_srand((double)microtime()*10000000000); $num=mt_rand(0, 20); if ($num == $num && $date == "$tomorrowdate") { echo"$num -- $date";} else echo " ";?> So if the script gets activated on the 05-05-2003 it must write tomorrow's date into the text file (06-05-2003). How will I get tomorrow's date today?

Start Date - End Date = Number Of Days
I have a starting date for var 1 and today’s date for var 2. I need to calculate how many days are between those two dates. 02/24/03(today) - 01/14/2002(start date) = number of days. In theory this is easy but there are many instances were I could get an inaccurate answer. For example one consideration is that some months have 30 days others have 31. exc. My question is, is there an easier way to solve this problem other than using endless if statments to error handle all possible instances? Does PHP4 have any built in functions that could calculate this formula correctly?

Convert The Date Separator Before Inserting The Date Into The DB
I need to convert the date separator before inserting the date into the DB. Right now, I have 01/01/2006 and I want 01-01-2006. The dates are coming from a CSV and so are an array element. I've tried strrpos and a few other functions trying to just replace the slashes with hypens and that's not working (I think maybe because it's an array and those functions don't work on arrays?) Could someone post example code for something like this? I have an array called $items[3] that holds the date with the separator mentioned above. I'm sure there are several ways to do it in both php and with mysql functions but I've been stuck on it for a while and REALLY need to get through this for a project I'm working on right now.

Basically im putting a join date into the database but i don't want it displayed as a date, i want it as pure numbers so that i can use it to work out things such as how long they've been a member, comments per day (by dividing the posts by how many days they've been a member) ect ect So whats the best way of putting that into the database? I have a vBulletin forum and looked in the database at what they had for the join date and i saw stuff like 112823... is that seconds or something? I also need to display the date as a real date xx/xx/xx so that must be possible aswell.
