PHP - Can Not Figure Out This Date Query
// Nav Tabs $query = "select DISTINCT YEAR(sold_date) FROM Sold"; $result = mysql_query($query); $numrows = mysql_num_rows($result); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $year = substr($row['sold_date'], 0, -6); $navTab .= '<a class="miniTabOn" href="index.php?date='.$year.'">'.$year.'</a>'; } I am trying to create a link for each year of items in my database, yet the text is not showing up... The "nav tab" is, because I can see the background image from the class="miniTabOn". Can anyone spot an error? Similar TutorialsI have done a query from a table with a timestamp like so DATE(...) I have this value as $defend_started (if I do an echo on this I get: 2011-04-30) Can I use this variable against other dates? Perhaps even "DATE_ADD($defend_started, INTERVAL 1 DAY)" ? If not, than what are the alternatives? Hi everyone I have a database with table containing my news it has a `start_date` field and a `end_date` field and I store dates as YYYY-MM-DD I have a PHP script on my webpage which I have a date set on it, such as $date = '2010-10-23' What QUERY would I need to run to return all rows which the date defined falls between the start and end date Any help would be great I tried WHERE `start_date` >= '2010-09-13' AND `end_date` <= '2010-09-13' but that doesn't seem to work I'm creating a line graph using ChartJs. I wanted to display my data according to the month selected by the user. For example, if the user select "2021-03" all the order that is made in the month of March will be plotted in the graph. It works well for the current month, but it does not work for the selected month. I use Ajax to get the data but i do not know why my graph does not shown when i click on my `loadchart();` button. Can anyone enlighten me how can i do it? Because i do not know what mistake did i made here. Any kind of explanation will be appreciated. Thanks!
This is the where i place my `loadchart()` button and also the javascript to plot the graph.

Edited April 27 by sashavalentina Hi i have the following code Quote
$sql= "SELECT * FROM income WHERE month(date) between '04' and '12' and year(date) between 2020 and 2020"; This obviously selects all the information from April 2020 to December 2020
How do i change this to add a date as well for example if i wanted to display all the information from April 6th 2020 to December 5th 2020 ?

I have let's say 20records, and like 5 of them are from January and 15 are in February, how would I go about showing all the records that were just in February (2012) or maybe 2013? (trick is using timestamps) Pretty much sort the records by each Monthy, by using unixtimestamp as the value in the db field, possible? Hello i am working on an application where i want to count from a selected date to another date and query all entries my database right now is composed of the following sales_id barcode_id student_id type of lunch date i have created the count per day, but now dont know how to go about to query the results and the count for the month. Code: [Select] $query = 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `sales` WHERE `tlunch` = 1 AND DATE(date) = CURDATE()'; $result = mysql_query($query) or die('Sorry, we could not count the number of results: ' . mysql_error()); $free = mysql_result($result, 0); has any one done something similar How would I put today date for instance into mysql_query? I just want the date and have the format be year, month, day. The format in the database looks like 2010-04-05. That being used as an example. And I have three drop down menus, which you can select the year, month, and day, but it doesn't seem to be working. What am I doing wrong? So I'm trying to put a user selected date into a mysql query, but it seems like no matter what I do I get 0 results even though I already know there's quite a few. The way I have it now 'echo $query;' puts out the expected results, but I'm guessing it's because I'm trying to match a date to a string. I tried strtotime but I'm not sure if I was doing it right.. I also tried sprintf() just in case, but that doesn't seem to have a date feature. The variable $realdate is just to show how I was attempting to use strtotime, it's not an actualy part of the script at this time... $searchdate = $_GET['searchdate']; //$realdate = strtotime($searchdate) //connects to db dbconnect(); $query="SELECT `name`, `date`, SUM(`amount`) as `total_money`, SUM(`bricks`) as `total_bricks` FROM Aces_Donations WHERE `date`= $searchdate ORDER BY `total_money`"; echo $query; $result=mysql_query($query); //Opens the table echo "<table border = '3' width = 40% bgcolor=#A85045><caption><center>Rankings - ".$searchdate.'</center></caption>'; //Loop to run until eof while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo "<tr><td>".$rank."</td> <td>".$row['name']. "</td><td>". $row['total_money']."</td><td>".$row['total_bricks'].'</td></tr>'; $rank++; } echo '</table>'; Hi,
I can I include a date range criteria to query with in the following code? The date field in the table (t_persons) is IncidentDate.
$criteria = array('FamilyName', 'FirstName', 'OtherNames', 'NRCNo', 'PassportNo', 'Gender', 'IncidenceCountryID', 'Status', 'OffenceKeyword', 'AgencyID', 'CountryID', 'IncidenceCountryID' );
$likes = "";
$url_criteria = '';
foreach ( $criteria AS $criterion ) {
if ( ! empty($_POST[$criterion]) ) {
$value = ($_POST[$criterion]);
$likes .= " AND `$criterion` LIKE '%$value%'";
$url_criteria .= '&'.$criterion.'='.htmlentities($_POST[$criterion]);
} elseif ( ! empty($_GET[$criterion]) ) {
$value = mysql_real_escape_string($_GET[$criterion]);
$likes .= " AND `$criterion` LIKE '%$value%'";
$url_criteria .= '&'.$criterion.'='.htmlentities($_GET[$criterion]);
} //var_dump($likes);
}
$sql = "SELECT * FROM t_persons WHERE PersonID>0" . $likes . " ORDER BY PersonID DESC";
Kind regards.
Hi I'm having a problem getting a query to work. I have a simple form with user input for start and end date with format: 2009-03-19 (todays date): $Startdate = $_POST['date']; This works well when something is entered into the form, and afterwards using my query: SELECT COUNT(*) as total FROM mydb WHERE Date BETWEEN '$Startdate' AND '$EndDate' ........ Problem is if user submits the form without entering anything in the date input fields, which makes sense. I want to check if inputs has been made, and if not set af default date, but can't make it work:
if (isset($_POST['date']) && $_POST['date'] !='') {
$Startdate = $_POST['date'];}
else { $Startdate = '1980-01-01';}
How can I set $Startdate to something that can be used in the query as below doesn't work? I'm getting this error "Warning: mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/westiehi/public_html/groupBOS.php on line 36" for this code: Code: [Select] $query_rs_specialty = "SELECT * FROM specialty WHERE Group_Place <> '' and Date>= DATE_SUB(CURDATE(), INTERVAL 6 MONTH) ORDER BY Date DESC"; I've tried everything to get this to take records where the one field is blank and the date is greater than a date 6 months ago but nothing seems to work. Help would sure be appreciated!! Hi. I have an input field where a date is entered, format dd-mm-yy. I need to query the database to see if this date exists. How can I convert the date to yyyymmdd before the query? Thanks Hey, I'm using a script which allows you to click on a calendar to select the date to submit to the database. The date is submitted like this: 2014-02-08 Is there a really simple way to prevent rows showing if the date is in the past? Something like this: if($currentdate < 2014-02-08 || $currentdate == 2014-02-08) { } Thanks very much, Jack Hello. I'm new to pHp and I would like to know how to get my $date_posted to read as March 12, 2012, instead of 2012-12-03. Here is the code: Code: [Select] <?php $sql = " SELECT id, title, date_posted, summary FROM blog_posts ORDER BY date_posted ASC LIMIT 10 "; $result = mysql_query($sql); while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $id = $row['id']; $title = $row['title']; $date_posted = $row['date_posted']; $summary = $row['summary']; echo "<h3>$title</h3>\n"; echo "<p>$date_posted</p>\n"; echo "<p>$summary</p>\n"; echo "<p><a href=\"post.php?id=$id\" title=\"Read More\">Read More...</a></p>\n"; } ?> I have tried the date() function but it always updates with the current time & date so I'm a little confused on how I get this to work. Alright, I have a Datetime field in my database which I'm trying to store information in. Here is my code to get my Datetime, however it's returning to me the wrong date. It's returning: 1969-12-31 19:00:00 $mysqldate = date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', $phpdate ); $phpdate = strtotime( $mysqldate ); echo $mysqldate; Is there something wrong with it? I have tried a large number of "solutions" to this but everytime I use them I see 0000-00-00 in my date field instead of the date even though I echoed and can see that the date looks correct. Here's where I'm at: I have a drop down for the month (1-12) and date fields (1-31) as well as a text input field for the year. Using the POST array, I have combined them into the xxxx-xx-xx format that I am using in my field as a date field in mysql. <code> $date_value =$_POST['year'].'-'.$_POST['month'].'-'.$_POST['day']; echo $date_value; </code> This outputs 2012-5-7 in my test echo but 0000-00-00 in the database. I have tried unsuccessfully to use in a numberof suggested versions of: strtotime() mktime Any help would be extremely appreciated. I am aware that I need to validate this data and insure that it is a valid date. That I'm okay with. I would like some help on getting it into the database. (continuing from topic title) So if I set a date of July 7 2011 into my script, hard coded in, I would like the current date to be checked against the hard coded date, and return true if the current date is within a week leading up to the hard coded date. How could I go about doing this easily? I've been researching dates in php but I can't seem to work out the best way to achieve what I'm after. Cheers Denno Hi, I have a job listing website which displays the closing date of applications using: $expired_date (This displays a date such as 31st December 2019) I am trying to show a countdown/number of days left until the closing date. I have put this together, but I can't get it to show the number of days.
<?php
$expired_date = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_job_expires', true );
$hide_expiration = get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_hide_expiration', true );
if(empty($hide_expiration )) {
if(!empty($expired_date)) { ?>
<span><?php echo date_i18n( get_option( 'date_format' ), strtotime( get_post_meta( $post->ID, '_job_expires', true ) ) ) ?></span>
<?php
$datetime1 = new DateTime($expired_date);
$datetime2 = date('d');
$interval = $datetime1->diff($datetime2);
echo $interval->d;
?>
<?php }
}
?>
Can anyone help me with what I have wrong? Many thanks I'm terrible at designing websites (that's pretty much out of the question), but I would like to work on my php skills. I just can't figure out anything I can write that isn't extremely hard.. ideas? |
