The reason for this is I"m going to get the total number of hits for my website for each month as well as the number of successful logins for my CMS script. Any thoughts? Code: [Select] <table class="visualize_dashboard"> <caption> Dashboard Chart Example </caption> <thead> <tr> <td></td> <th scope="col">March</th> <th scope="col">April</th> <th scope="col">May</th> <th scope="col">June</th> <th scope="col">July</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <th scope="row">Visits</th> <td>175</td> <td>145</td> <td>212</td> <td>175</td> <td>182</td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">Logins</th> <td>94</td> <td>53</td> <td>124</td> <td>92</td> <td>105</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> Ok, so I have a code that looks like so: Code: [Select] <script type="text/javascript"> var ng_config = { assests_dir: 'ng/assets/' // the path to the assets directory } </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="ng/ng_all.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="ng/components/calendar.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var my_cal; ng.ready(function(){ // creating the calendar var my_cal = new ng.Calendar({ input: 'enddate', start_date: 'year - 1', // the start date (default is today) display_date: ng.get('startdate').value, // the display date (default is start_date) server_date_format: 'm/d/Y' // changing the server date format for a specific calendar. }); }); var my_cal1; ng.ready(function(){ // creating the calendar my_cal1 = new ng.Calendar({ input: 'startdate', start_date: 'year - 1', // the start date (default is today) display_date: new Date(), // the display date (default is start_date) server_date_format: 'm/d/Y' // changing the server date format for a specific calendar. }); }); how do I detect the months that pass between the two dates that are selected using a popup calendar using php so that my register page know which month to display the event under. Does this make sense? Hi, I managed to source this code that allows me to work out how many days until a date. However I don't know how it works so I can't change it to make it work out months. Can someone kindly help me understand it? Also this code uses the unix timestamp system. $cdate = $deadlinedate; $today = time(); $difference = $cdate - $today; if ($difference < 0) { $difference = 0; $days=floor($difference/60/60/24); All help appreciated.

I am from the UK the date is March 31st so I am using timezone: date_default_timezone_set('UTC'); I capture the date: $date = date("Y-m-d"); Add a month to the date: date("Y-m-d", strtotime("+1 Month", strtotime($date))) And its comming out as May. If I capture the date through the URL which I do when navigating back: $date = $_GET['date']; Its works and says April Can anyone please advise me on why this is happening. Thanks Hi, I have db field with date. I want to make select statement with where clause when part of the date (month) is true. Example, i have records from 2020-2-1 until 2020-4-3, i want to select records for march only 2020-3-1 to 2020-3-31. how to do that? Just to make things a lot simpler, I decided to start a new topic. My question is, how can I count how many months it is back to the past November? Example: May 2011 back to November would return 6. Example: Dec 2011 back to November would return 1. Example: October 2011 back to November would return 11. Jake 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 Hello All, I have a News database in which articles are entered in. Right now all the stories are being display in one big page with every story on it. What I would like to do is to create an "archive" in which it automatically organizes the stories by their date. For example. 2011 February January 2010 December November October September etc... etc... I have a datetime field for the database, and I know how to do this all manually, but I can't figure out how to make it automatically add a month each month. It would be too much maintanence to have to update this every month. I also don't know what this would be called, so I don't even know what to search for. I've tried blog and news, but doesn't seem to be what I want. Any help would be appreciated! I got 3 problems I am not able to do with the following PHP code 1) The sort function is not sorting the months in order like how I want it? Why? 2) How would I use a for loop to display the array of months? 3) How would I use a while loop and switch statements to display the array of months with # of days in each? Code: [Select] <?php $calendar = array("Janurary", "Feburary", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December"); print_r ($calendar); echo "<h1>FOR loop</h1>"; echo "(put for loop code here)"; echo "<br>"; sort($calender); echo "<br>"; print_r ($calendar); echo "<h1>WHILE loop, SWITCH statement</h1>"; echo "(put while loop code here)"; echo "<br>"; ?> Hello, I am trying to display rainfall totals for the year so far in a table with months going across and days going down. Like so: -- Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 etc And then have the rainfall totals for each day in the table, I am quite experienced with PHP however I cant work out how I would do this The data is stored in a mysql table called "wx_daily", and the rainfall column is called" RainTotal". The dates are stored in the "Date" column in mysql Date format. Im using the following mysql query: SELECT * FROM wx_daily WHERE YEAR(Date) = '2011' ORDER BY Date Asc Thanks, Mark As far as I can see, this code: Code: [Select] $this->_licence_expires = date('Y/m/d', mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m"), date("d")-1, date("Y"))); results in accounts expiring 1 year from today, right? How can I change it so that it will result in expiry 9 months from today? TIA 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? 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.'

All works perfectly. The dropdownlist consists of 3 parts <optgroups> first is current selection (what is the usesr current selection)works fine, The second <optgroup> is existing words, what words we(the site) have given as options, and the third <optgroup> is the words that others have used. This is where im having a small problem. Because its a text field when i call the data from the database, it calls the entire text box as a single option in my select list.. I want to break the words in the text field (at the comma) and have them listed each one as an option in the select list. Example what i need: Words in text box:(my input allows the "comma") word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, word6, How i want them called/displayed: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> here's my code: $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $original_functionsexperience =doSelectSql($query,1); $query = "SELECT allwords FROM #__functions_experience WHERE profile_id = '".(int)$profileId."' LIMIT 1"; $functionsexperiencelist=doSelectSql($query); $funcexpList ="<select multiple=\"multiple\" onchange=\"setFunctionsexperience(this.options)\">"; foreach ($functionsexperiencelist as $functionsexperienceal) { $selected=""; if ($functionsexperienceals->allwords == $original_functionsexperience) $selected=' selected="selected"'; $allwords=$functionsexperienceal->allwords; $funcexpList .= "<optgroup label=\"Current selection\"> <option value=\"".$allwords."\" ".$selected." >".$allwords."</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Existing Words\"> <option value=\"existing1,\">existing1</option> <option value=\"existing2,\">existing2</option> <option value=\"existing3,\">existing3</option> <option value=\"existing4,\">existing4</option> <option value=\"existing5,\">existing5</option> <option value=\"existing6,\">existing6</option> </optgroup> <optgroup label=\"Others added\"> //heres problem <option value=\"".$allwordsgeneral."\">".$allwordsgeneral."</option> </optgroup>"; } $funcexpList.="</select>"; $output['FUNCEXPLIST']=$funcexpList; The result im getting for optgroup others added: word1, word2, word3, word4, word5, how can i get it like this: <option value=\"word1\">word1</option> <option value=\"word2\">word2</option> <option value=\"word3\">word3</option> <option value=\"word4\">word4</option> <option value=\"word5\">word5</option> <option value=\"word6\">word6</option> Hi , I have one question ..
