PHP - 3rd Sunday Of Every Month For 6 Months (datetime, Date(), Strtotime())????
I am using the following code to get the third sunday of every month for +6 Months from todays date. I have put together the following code which works perfectly when the date is echoed however when it comes to inserting those dates into mysql db it throws a unable to convert to string error. Im new to this and my head is in a spin as to why those dates can't be inserted if they can echoed ok. I have spent 2 days at it now and searched many forum however they seem to get side tracked from my issue (or do they)??????? I figure I can't go mixing DateTime and date() the way I have? Please help???
Code: [Select] [php] $month=date('F'); $now=date('Y-m-d'); $year=date('Y'); $num='3'; //example only this will be a $_POST value 0-3 $day='Sunday'; //example only this will be a $_POST value Monday-Sunday $start= date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+'.$num.' week '.$day.' '.$month.' '.$year.'')); if($start>$now) { $begin=strtotime('+'.$num.' week '.$day.' '.$month.' '.$year.''); } else { $d = new DateTime( $start ); $d->modify( 'first day of next month' ); $nextmonth = $d->format( 'F' ); $year = $d->format( 'Y' ); $begin=strtotime('+'.$num.' week '.$day.' '.$nextmonth.' '.$year.''); } $date=date('Y-m-d', $begin); # insert into db first occurance //mysql_select_db($database); //$query_rsFirst = "INSERT INTO event_date VALUES (NULL, '$event', '$d', '$date', '$date')"; //$rsFirst = mysql_query($query_rsFirst) or die(mysql_error()); echo $date.'<br/>'; for($i = 0; $i <= 4; $i++) { $d = new DateTime( $date ); $d->modify( 'first day of next month' ); $nextmonth = $d->format( 'F' ); $date=date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+'.$num.' week '.$day.' '.$nextmonth.' '.$year.'')); # insert into db //mysql_select_db($database); //$query_rsDate = "INSERT INTO event_date VALUES (NULL, '$event', '$d', '$date', '$date')"; //$rsDate = mysql_query($query_rsDate) or die(mysql_error()); echo $date.'<br/>'; if($nextmonth=="December") { $d = new DateTime( $date ); $d->modify( 'first day of next year' ); $year = $d->format( 'Y' ); } } [/php] Similar TutorialsHi all, I am currently storing dates and times for certain events in the following format: $now= date('Y-m-d H:i:s'); This variable is then stored in a MySQL field of type DATETIME. I am looking for a way to query the database to return all results in a certain month, or within a certain time range, or a certain year etc. How would this be achieved? e.g. If I wanted to select everything for the year 2009, would it be: SELECT * FROM table WHERE date BETWEEN '2009-01-01 00:00:00' AND '2009-12-31 11:59:59' ? Thanks! 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? 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. I am working on a report generation. Here I need to count the number of months involved in the selected date range. I need to apply the monthly charges accordingly. Example: If the user selects 25-08-2011 to 03-10-2011, it should return 3 as the number of months. Yes, the number of days are less than 60 but still the date range is spread across 3 months. Any solution.. Please. Girish Hey freaks, running into a little issue with the use of date and strtotime.... basically I wanna present the date in the format m-d-y to the user and insert it into the DB in the Y-m-d format. What seems to be happening is a freaky Y-d-m format and I don't know why this is. This code is an example that expresses my frustration. Code: [Select] $nmon = strtotime("next Monday"); $next = date('m-d-Y', $nmon); $_SESSION['REPORT_DUE'] = $next; $nfri = strtotime("Friday"); $due = date('m-d-Y', $nfri); $_SESSION['WEEK_ENDING'] = $due; $ses1 = $_SESSION['WEEK_ENDING2'] = date('Y-m-d', strtotime($due)); $ses2 = $_SESSION['WEEK_ENDING3'] = date('d-m-Y', strtotime($ses1)); .....output.... Quote [WEEK_ENDING] => 09-02-2011 [WEEK_ENDING2] => 2011-02-09 [WEEK_ENDING3] => 09-02-2011 ) Thank you for any assistance. 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!! So this is a simple code that finds out the difference between two dates and displays it in number of days. $date1=date_create("2013-03-15"); $date2=date_create("2013-12-12"); $diff=date_diff($date1,$date2); echo $diff->format("%R%a days"); // RESULT +272 days
My first question. Is it possible to remove the + sign in the result above? Second question. Is it possible to show "months" if it's greater than 30 days? And years if the days are greater than 365? How would I do this? Hi, I'm struggling a bit with using a date format and strtotime() Code: [Select] if(!empty($_GET['utime'])) { $time = strtotime($_GET['utime']); } utime is supplied in the format dd/mm/yyyy but when I use strtotime() it treats it as mm/dd/yyyy....so 07/12/2011 is taken as 12th Aug rather than 7th Dec..which is the date I want to use. I had a quick ganders through the forums but couldn't find anything specific to this. is there any other attributes to strtotime() that will help, or a similar fucntion or a neat way of swoping my dd/mm/yyyy round before i use strtotime() any help greatly appreciated... I'm having a bit of trouble converting dates from strings. "171630Z - 181200Z" is what I would like to convert. I want to be able to display more information via date() with strtotime(). The timezone I would prefer is Central. To explain what the string represents: 17 = day (December 17th - today) 1630Z = time in UTC/GMT 18 = day (December 18th - tomorrow) 1200Z = time in UTC/GMT Is there an easy way of doing this or is it impossible with just the day and time in UTC? Thanks. Edit: I would also like to convert "1009 AM CST FRI DEC 17 2010" but that isn't working either. Here is the code im using $dateOfBirth = ''; preg_match('|Born on ([a-zA-Z]*\s[0-9]*,\s[0-9]*)\\\u003c\\\/span>|', $page, $match); if($match && count($match)>0) { $date = str_replace(",","",$match[1]); blue($date); $timestamp = strtotime($date); $dateOfBirth = date('Y-m-d',$timestamp); // 1994-03-23 } else { red("No Age is set on profile"); continue; } im getting a match like this March 9, 1993 When i run my script im getting this error [2048] strtotime() [function.strtotime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings.

I'm getting: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ',2012-01-31)' at line 4 I get the error when I try to insert the date as a string from a DateTime object via: $insertDate = $date->format('Y-m-d'); As well as when I try to recast it as a date object: $insertDate = date("Y-m-d",strtotime($date->format('Y-m-d'))); I've also tried putting the date in ' ' 's and escaped " " 's. My insert query is: $insert = "INSERT INTO pendingordersdetails (PartNumber,Oqty,Pqty,Aqty,PartStatus, PartPrice,idOrderNo,PrtTariffCode,PrtLocation,LineNum,PKqty,SPqty,AllocationDate) VALUES ('$partNum',$oQty,0,$aQty,'Excess',$price,$orderNum,'$tariffCode', '$location',$lineNum,$PKqty,$SPqty,'$allocDate');"; and the echoed output is: INSERT INTO pendingordersdetails (PartNumber,Oqty,Pqty,Aqty,PartStatus, PartPrice,idOrderNo,PrtTariffCode,PrtLocation,LineNum,PKqty,SPqty,AllocationDate) VALUES ('0446535240 ',3,0,1,'Excess',163.89,66,' ', 'A0406E01',2,,,'2012-01-31'); Anyone have any ideas? hi i have a mysql table with upddate and updtime field as follows: upddate updtime 2011-02-25 11:03:05 2011-01-28 08:01:09 2011-02-20 07:00:08 2011-02-15 06:10:02 2011-02-05 10:21:04 2011-02-09 10:20:25 the data types for upddate is mysql date and for updtime its mysql time In my php page i use Code: [Select] <?php echo $date = date("d M Y",strtotime($row_rs1['upddate'])); ?> to retrieve date and the results displays as 25 Feb 2011. And for time right now im using Code: [Select] <?php echo $row_rs1['updtime']; ?> which displays time as 11:03:05 I want to display time as HH:MM only, how can i do it? What I'm basically trying to accomplish is, that the datetime of the user posted information is registered with the Now() function in the query, BUT that the user entered information gets echo'd out with the Date showing ONLY. What I have is this: -Just as an example- INSERT INTO db (date_created) VALUES (now()) while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($data)) { echo '<tr><td>' . $row['date_created'] . '</td></tr>'; } mysqli_close($dbc); With this way of course I get Date and Time showcased just like it's inserted into the DB. What would be a legit way of showcasing just date. Thanks for help. EDIT: or is there a better way than using now() to showcase the date when the user entered information was posted? Hi there,
I'm a bit of a newbie and I have done a search online, but i'm still confused.
I need to search my MYSQL database in a filed named date_mod I need to search for todays date only $date=gmdate("Y-m-d");
But however the field is a datetime option so how can I search only todays date and not both date and time.
Thank you for reading.
I am looking for a way to have my 'start_date', echo ('start_date' + 1 month). I am looking at the line that reads .... date("F Y",strtotime($row['start_date'])). Does anyone have a suggestion. The date format read, July 2014 or alphabetical full month, numerical full year. Thank you in advance.

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 I have a field called date_time in the database which is of type datetime. I have a form which on submit needs to enter the current date and time in the date_time field. I know I can get the current time using time() $time=time(); Can do I do some kind of manipulation using strtotime() and store in the database in datetime format? Hi, I am having set of records, id name dob 1 philip 1278226800 2 winsent 1278216800 3 Benn 1272226800 now i want to fetch the records based on the month and listing out, can anyone help me to write for the above concept. Thanks, Hi guys, i was having an issue with dates and although it leans a bit more into MYSQL I was hoping i could get some help ive searched all over the net for this so I dont know if im not thinking on how to ask this correctly or can't find it, but ill be as detailed as possible and hope that helps.
Ok I have a table that shows when payment was received on past invoices dating back to say 1995; The company processes 'ALL' invoices every month on the 9th, so if anything comes in from the first to the ninth it will be processed that month on the ninth. If it comes in from the tenth to the thirtieth or thirty-first it will be processed the following month.
The table already has a "Received" date filed and now I want to create a column on the table called "Processed Date" (adding the column is no problem don't need help with that part) that shows me the date we processed the invoice.
I know i have to use the "Received" field (because it shows what day the invoice was put into the system) but im not sure how to format the "Processed Date" field, so say the "Received" field shows an invoice came in on '1995-05-11', I want the "Processed Date" field to display it was payed on '1995-06-09' (notice that is the following month).
I thought i would put in a visual of what I was trying to do below:
So if I pull the two columns in MYSQL from that table I would see something like this:
Received Processed Date
1996-02-03 1996-02-09
1996-03-03 1996-03-09
1996-04-11 1996-05-09
1996-05-20 1996-06-09
1996-07-13 1996-08-09
If i could get some guidance/help on this i would really appreciate it.
thanks in advance!!
