PHP - Selecting Todays Date From Database

SELECT * FROM `booking_tbl` WHERE booking_status = 'Check In' AND departure_date_time = NOW()"

I use the datetime datatype for the departure_date_time so i can get data from that data because it checking the date and time   but i want it to check on the date from the datetime datatype   So how can i get the data only with that date without the time in the mysql datetime datatype

Following on from my problem with another Google Chart which jay0316 kindly helped with, I have another issue which I am hoping that someone might be able to help me with.   I am trying to put together a site for my wife to manage her diabetes and insulin intake. We want to monitor her blood/sugar glucose over periods of time (but with notes that she includes that can help monitor reasons for outlying results such as illness), so I am trying to include a Google Annotation Chart to do this, drawing on blood/glucose readings stored in a Database.   Where I am struggling at the moment is converting timestamps into information that I can include in the chart.   What I currently have at the moment (which obviously isn't working) is:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi?autoload={'modules':[{'name':'visualization','version':'1','packages':['annotationchart']}]}"></script>
      <script type='text/javascript'>
      google.load('visualization', '1', {'packages':['annotationchart']});
      google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
      function drawChart() {
        var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
        data.addColumn('datetime', 'Date');
        data.addColumn('number', 'Readings');
        data.addColumn('string', 'Notes');
        data.addRows([
		<?php

$annotate=DB::getInstance()->query("SELECT * FROM tabbyhealth WHERE reading!=0");

Hey freaks!

I have a problem, i can't figure out how to recieve one single string from the database, i tried alot of things.

Code: [Select]
public function getpass($name){
    $q = sprintf("SELECT password FROM database WHERE name='%s'", mysql_real_escape_string($name));
    $result = mysql_query($q) or die(mysql_error());

    // And here i tried every single way to fetch the data. Wich one should i use when its only one slot in a row i need?
}
I hope you can help me!

Hey guys im making a blog and when i make a post it automatically takes the date and created an archive based on what ever i have in the database (date wise) anyways it works almost fine but if i make a date in the same month it duplicates like so:

October 2010
October 2010
November 2010

Is there away where i can limit October by 1 but when i come to make a post next year it will still display like so:

October 2010
November 2010
December 2010
January 2011
...
October 2011

If i show you the code might make more sense haha::


public function create_archive()
{
// Loop through the database grabbing all the dates::
$sql = "SELECT blog_date
FROM subarc_blog";

$stmt = $this->conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($date);

$rows = array();

while($row = $stmt->fetch())
{
$date = explode("-",$date);
$month = date("F",mktime(0,0,0,$date['1']));
$year = $date[0];

$item = array(
'blog_month' => $month,
'blog_year' => $year
);
$rows[] = $item;
}
$stmt->close();
return $rows;
}



and the sidebar looks like so::


<ul class="sidebar">
<?php
$result = $Database->create_archive();
foreach($result as $row) : 
?>
<li><a href=""><?php echo $row['blog_month'] . " " . $row['blog_year']; ?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>


Hope someone can help!

Hi,
I want to be able to generate visitor statistics for a blog I'm creating. I'm going to be collecting numerous pieces of data when a post is viewed, including a time stamp of the visit.

I need to be able to select timestamps that were within the current day, the previous day, the day before that ect.. So that I can generate the statistics.
Show it for the current week (current day and 6 previous days).

So it would be the entries where the timestamp was made on the days: 11/1, 10/1, 9/1, 8/1, 7/1, 6/1, 5/1. For example.

Not quite sure how I could do this.

Thanks.

Hello. Many thanks for your help.

I am writing a PHP/MySQL dating-site and have hit a programming impass.

I have a database full of members and a search form consisting of checkboxes.

So to search, a member ticks say...gender: female; age: 21,22,23,24,25,26; height: 5'4",5'5",5'6",5'7"; county: cornwall,devon,somerset

How can a run a check on the database selecting all entries that fall into the selected criteria. For example a 23 year old female of 5'5" living in Cornwall and a 26 year old female of 5'4" living in Somerset?

The key index of my database is 'id' and the fields a age,height,county
The names of the form checkboxes a
Gender: male, female; Age: 21,22,23,24 etc; Height: 5_4,5_5,5_6 etc; county: cornwall,devon etc

We recently upgraded from PHP4 to PHP5 and the below script that was working perfectly in 4 has completely stopped working and I can't figure out why for the life of me. I'm not an experienced PHP programmer--I've done some forms, but this is the first time I've used a database.

What needs to (and was) happen: A user enters their username in the form and gets a readout of their participation so far that month.

The problem(s): I know that it's storing the variable 'user' because it echoes it back properly, but the database is no longer allowing me to select the row based on that variable. I know it's not that I can't connect to the database because if instead of '$user' I change the code to a username I know is in there, I get the proper readout. This all started as soon as I transferred over to PHP5--before that, no problems at all.

The database information is all correct, I just took it out for privacy's sake.

<form id="feedback" method="post" action="index.php">

<input name="user" type="text" value="Enter user name" size="20" maxlength="50" /><br />

<input name="send" id="send" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
<?php
if (isset($_POST['user'])) { 
$_session['user'] = $_POST['user'];
} 
?>

<p>You entered your username as: <strong><? echo $_session['user'];?></strong>. If this is not correct or you do not see your information below, please re-enter your username and click Submit again.</p>

<?php
$con = mysql_connect("database","username","password");
if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

mysql_select_db("database", $con);

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM March WHERE Username='$user'") or die ('Error: '.mysql_error ());

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
  echo "<table border='0'>";
  echo "<tr>";
  echo "<td><strong>Username:</strong> </td><td>" . $row['Username'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "<tr><td><strong>Mar. 2 Discussion:</strong></td><td>" . $row['Mar2Q'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "<tr><td><strong>Mar. 2 Poll:</strong></td><td>" . $row['Mar2P'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "<tr><td><strong>Mar. 9 Discussion:</strong></td><td>" . $row['Mar9Q'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "<tr><td><strong>Mar. 9 Poll:</strong></td><td>" . $row['Mar9P'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "<tr><td><strong>Mar. 16 Discussion:</strong></td><td>" . $row['Mar16Q'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "<tr><td><strong>Mar. 16 Poll:</strong></td><td>" . $row['Mar16P'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "<tr><td><strong>March Participation To-Date:</strong></td><td>" . $row['Participation'] . "</td></tr>";
  echo "</tr>";
  } 
  echo "</table>";

mysql_close($con);
?> 

ANY help would be greatly appreciated! I've got a couple hundred people who use this on a regular basis and are starting to ask why it's not working.

Alright, I've been assigned a project at work. I did not develop the application and the individual who did used CodeIgnited framework and mysql as the db.   Here's the problem, I'm not given much OT to do this and in our meeting the best way to proceed was to replicate the database for different parts of the organization. Basically we are a subsidiary and have been using an application that other groups within the organization want to use. Usually I would reconfigure the db schema and add org ids and in the user table add the appropriate organization to go to. However, they are not giving me enough time to do that.   So what I'm thinking is to just create a copy of the database we use (just the structure) and create a new database.   What I want to know is how to use mysql to check to see if a user exists in one database and if they don't then to go on to the next database. I understand this is a very sloppy way to do it, but it's the way we are moving forward.   I found the code to connect to the db in CodeIgnitor... how can I connect to a database, check to see if the user exists, then close that db connection and try the next database?  

    /**
     * Select the database
     *
     * @access    private called by the base class
     * @return    resource
     */
    function db_select()
    {
        return @mysql_select_db($this->database, $this->conn_id);
    }

  Thanks in advance.

Hi, Currently I am making a module for joomla. every article has an publish date, if the article was published in 7 days ago, it will displayed as "article in last week", My idea is to use today's date - publish date, if the result is greater than 7 and smaller than 14, the article will be displayed as "article in last week.
Any one know how to write this code?
Here is what I have got, but not working.

<?php
$todays_date = date("Y-m-d"); 

$result = mysql_query("select * from jos_content where $test between $todays_date-14 and $todays_date-7");  
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
echo "$todays_date - $row[title]";
}
?>

i have 3 things in url bar
$day
$month
$year
(its important it stays 3 variables in url)

I am trying to update last logged in entry in the database upon succesful login. 

I may be way off in the logic here or I may be missing something simple.  I don't get any errors and it logs in fine.  Just does not update the lastvisit field in the database. 


       Code: [Select]
//record date of most recent login
$result = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE user_id ='".$_SESSION['userId'] . "'");
$dtCreated = date('Y-m-d');
mysql_query("UPDATE users SET lastvisit=('$dtCreated') WHERE username = $result");

Hi
I have started my error checking for my form.  I am understand that the date must be inserted in the format yyyy/mm/dd but on my form i need it to be inserted in the format dd/mm/yyyy.  I have wrote some code but have only been doing php about a week properly so I can't see what my error is.  Whenever I try to insert the date, the form its self does not error but if i check the database the date is simply 0000/00/00.   Can anyone help?

Hi fellas, this is really kicking my arse and i know its so simple!

I retrieve a date from the database, done!
I am manipulating it to display as i want, done!
How the hell do i add 365 days to this date?

$date= ($row['date']);
$subscription = strtotime($date);
echo
"<p>Subscription renewal date: ". date('l jS F Y', $subscription) . "</p>";

I need to add date of birth field to registration form and then save it to databse. I cannot figure out what might be best way of storing the date in the table. I could convert it to unix epoch time, or I could do YYYYMMDD.   Thoughts? What would be the easiest method of saving the DOB? I am not asking on how to do it, just the format. Thanks

I have my database set to insert the current time stamp when an entry is made into the table, I am then trying to retrieve via the following code:


$select_view_idea="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name5 WHERE message_number='$message_number'";
$result_view_idea=mysql_query($select_view_idea);
while($row_view_idea=mysql_fetch_assoc($result_view_idea)){
extract($row_view_idea);
}
date_default_timezone_set('US/Eastern');
$date=date('l, F jS Y h:i:s A T', $date);
echo $date;


The above is outputting:
Wednesday, December 31st 1969 07:33:31 PM EST

the database contains:
2011-11-18 00:47:56
