How I Could Compare Two Dates To Find The Number Of Days That Seperate Them.

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]; $ts = mktime(0,0,0,$month, $day, $year); $dateVal = date("j-M-y", $ts); echo "<br>Date is: ".$dateVal;

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.

Posting Dates To MYSQL
I can extract from a MYSQL database and view in a form text field a date in the following format d/m/y. I am using the Date type in MYSQL which requires the format 0000-00-00 (Y-m-d). My question is once I have extracted and filtered the date to "display" as d/m/y why when I send it back to the database doesn't it send the the date back in the format that MYSQL prefers. Here is my code: <td align=left bgcolor="#6495ed"><input type="text" name='payment_due(<?php echo $customer_details->AbsolutePosition()?>)' value='<?php echo FormatDate($customer_details->Value("payment_due"),"d/m/y") ?>

MySQL Varchar And Dates
I took over a website, and can't figure out how php calls get their date from the MySQL database date field, that is a varchar type. Specifically, an example I'm looking at has field=date, type=varchar(14) in the structue, and the data for the date field is 1094284800. When I do a php call to this field using the following script echo "<b>". date("D. M. j", $events[$i]['date']) it returns Sat. Sep. 4, which is correct. How does 1094284800 become this date? If I change it to 1094384800 it becomes Sun. Sep. 5. How is this possible, by simply changing one digit, and how can I change to other dates simply other than trial and error?

Range Of Dates For Mysql To Flash Calendar
I have a database that stores records of calendar events that can range in length (eg- from jan 02 to feb 13). I have a flash web interface that takes in specifically formatted date variables (eg- “&01022002=on this day we go to the park”). The interface between the two formats the entry. Previously each record from the db could not be a range of dates so it was easy to format. Now, I have to figure out a way to overlap different ranges of dates so it will work. Can anyone tell me if this has been done before in a similar application I could look at or else point me in the right direction?

I'm interested in displaying my MySQL db output in a certain way based on dates that are in each record, here is an example of the output that I want: http://fscconline.org/Resources/Media/default.aspx I want my final output to be just like that, first year, then month, then day sorted, and each in it's little category of the month. Now I know for a fact since I'm the one who updates this site, that the date isn't entered as seperate fields(e.g. year, month, day) when you create a new entry in the DB, it's standard format(mm/dd/yyyy). Then when they pull the info out it's sorted this way.

Dates In Range Falling Between Existing Dates

Plus, I can't see straight right now Here's what I want to do. 1. user joins. 2. thank you email is sent 3. if account is not activated within 3 days, send a reminder email // i think it's like this $today $date_joined $cutoff_date = ($today + 30 days) if($date_joined >= ($cutoff_date - 3 days)) { //do something } 1. user joins 2. user has 30 days to try account 3. 3 days before account is to be deleted, reminder email is sent // again, I'm "thinking" $date_joined $reminder_date = ($today + 3 days) if($date_joined >= $reminder_date) { do something }
