PHP - Date Problems Involving Php
problem showing date posted from a form into MYSQL using the php code. Date shows as 0000-00-00 and not the value submitted from the form. Thank you for any help
Code: [Select] $sql="INSERT INTO Results (RunnerID, EventID, Date, FinishTime, Position, CategoryID, AgeGrade, PB) VALUES ('$_POST[RunnerID]','$_POST[EventID]','$_POST[Date]','$_POST[FinishTime]','$_POST[Position]','$_POST[CategoryID]','$_POST[AgeGrade]','$_POST[PB]')"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$connection)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } echo "<h1> Success!

I've verified that the variables contain the correct information, HOWEVER when this code is run, the returns a $rangeStart = 2016-03-02 <- This is the return even if I give it a static date! $rangeEnd = 2010-09-19 or blank! What am I doing wrong? For this example: Code: [Select] $selDay = 17; $selMonth = 9; $selYear = 2010; $pDay[0] = 14; //Day $pDay[1] = 9; //Month $pDay[2] = 2010; //Year $errMsg = "selDay: ".$selDay."-".$selMonth."-".$selYear."; pDay: ".$pDay[0]."-".$pDay[1]."-".$pDay[2]."; selRange: ".$selRange."; TEMP: "; if(mktime(1,1,1,$selMonth,$selDay,$selYear)>mktime(1,1,1,$pDay[1],$pDay[0],$pDay[2])) { $reverse = true; $tmp = $pDay[0]; $pDay[0] = $selDay; $selDay = $tmp; $errMsg.="<br />selDay=".$selDay."<br />pDay[0]=".$pDay[0]; $tmp = $pDay[1]; $pDay[1] = $selMonth; $selDay = $tmp; $errMsg.="<br />selMonth=".$selMonth."<br />pDay[1]=".$pDay[1]; $tmp = $pDay[2]; $pDay[2] = $selYear; $selDay = $tmp; $errMsg.="<br />selYear=".$selYear."<br />pDay[2]=".$pDay[2]; } $RangeStart = date("Y-m-d",mktime(1,1,1,$selMonth,$selDay,$selYear)); //Selected Range start in d-m-Y $RangeEnd = date("Y-m-d",mktime(1,1,1,$pDay[1],$pDay[0],$pDay[2])); //Selected Range start in d-m-Y $errMsg.=";<br /> Range Start: ".$pRangeStart."; <br />Range End: ".$pRangeEnd."; echo $errMsg; Returns: Code: [Select] selDay: 17-9-2010; pDay: 14-9-2010; selRange: ; TEMP: selDay=14 pDay[0]=17 selMonth=9 pDay[1]=9 selYear=2010 pDay[2]=2010; Range Start: ; Range End: ; This is getting annoying. Any help would be wonderful. hi there. can someone tell me how to get this to print out the real minutes instead of the month? echo date("M-d-Y H:m:s", mktime()); i've read http://www.sqlite.org/lang_datefunc.html but i can't seem to get it to work. I'm using microtime to capture $start_time and $finish_time bothing using microtime() function. I then pass both $start_time and $finish_time into date() function to parse a date. The difference between $start_time and $finish_time is also calculated. The problem being the date() function is producing incorrect values. list($total_count, $success_count, $errors_data, $start_time, $finish_time) = $summary_data; $duration_time = $finish_time - $start_time; echo "<b>Started Processing At:</b> ".date('m/d/Y H:i:m', $start_time)."<br/>"; echo "<b>Completed Processing At:</b> ".date('m/d/Y H:i:m', $finish_time)."<br/>"; echo "<b>Processing Duration:</b> $duration_time seconds<br/><br/>"; The output: Started Processing At: 11/22/2010 18:45:11 Completed Processing At: 11/22/2010 18:45:11 Processing Duration: 8.0499620437622 seconds Hey guys i was wondering if someone could help or guide me. I have been messing around with php for quite some months now to the stage where i can code pretty much what i need to. but recently i started using paypals IPN and during testing i realised some problems arise for example when testing and people buying things say the payment failed due to a line not executing in your script for what ever reason, the person has lost their money yet you have gained it and they are lost. Take this code below for example: public function insertIntoDatabase($firstName,$lastName,$emailAddress,$merchant,$code,$database,$gameNumber) { $year = date("Y"); // Check what database we need to submit too:: $sql = "INSERT INTO playerGame (playerFirstName, playerLastName, playerEmailAddress, playerAccountType, playerCode, playerGameDate, playerGameNumber) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?)"; $stmt = $this->conn->prepare($sql); $stmt->bind_param('ssssssi',$firstName,$lastName,$emailAddress,$merchant,$code,$year,$gameNumber); $stmt->execute(); $stmt->close(); return true; } this is called on success the paypal IPN script. But what happens if this fails to execute? I suppose i could wrap it in a variable on the other side and test it if($task) { echo "code executed"; } but what happens if this fails ? of am i just being paranoid ? hope someone can help dont want to be ripping people off =] Thanks! I'm building a query that searches by database and returns matching (or almost matching) terms. That part isn't the problem- I have it up and working. The problem is that I'm trying to narrow down the search results, and it's not working. Here's the query that works: Code: [Select] $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM auctions WHERE name LIKE '%".$searchterm."%' OR Address LIKE '%".$searchterm."%' OR state like '%".$searchterm."%'"); Here's the query that DOESN'T works: Code: [Select] $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM auctions WHERE type='Cars' AND name LIKE '%".$searchterm."%' OR Address LIKE '%".$searchterm."%' OR state like '%".$searchterm."%'"); What I'm trying to do is say "give me all the results from type:Cars. Instead, it ignores the WHERE type='Cars' statement, and returns results for all types. It frustrates me because I use the same exact query in a thousand other places, and it works everywhere else. For example: Code: [Select] $sql = "SELECT * FROM auctions WHERE type='Boats' AND state='$v4' ORDER BY $v1 $v2"; works just fine. I'm not exactly an expert on any of this, but I can see no logical reason why this works, but the Search code doesn't. They appear in all ways identical, at least as far as query structure goes. Can anyone spot where I screwed up? Thanks! Kyle Some help would be great here. The following snippets work, but I am unable to figure out how to activate the error message "You did not select a name for editing". Both of the other error codes work but if I input 'given' and 'family' and forget to select the relevant radio button, the error message doesn't work. No other problems with the code. Code: [Select] <html> <table> <?php // Query member data from the database $query1 = mysql_query("SELECT userId FROM users WHERE managerId='".$recid."' AND userGroup='".$group2."' ORDER BY userId ASC"); while($row1 = mysql_fetch_array($query1)) { $firstGroup .=$row1['userId']. ' <input type="radio" name="snames" value="'.$row1['userId'].'" /> ' . " <br /><br>"; } ?> <form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="<?PHP echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; ?>"> <tr> <td><?php echo $firstGroup;?></td> <td><input type="text" name="given" value="" /><p> <input type="text" name="family" value="" /><p> <input type="submit" value="submit" name="Send Data"></form></td> </tr> </table> </html Here are the error messages and their activation method. Code: [Select] <?php // Process the form if it is submitted if ($_POST['snames']) { $snames = $_POST['snames']; $family = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9]/", ".", $_POST['family']); $given = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9]/", ".", $_POST['given']); //next section deals with error messaging $errorMsg = "ERROR:"; if(!$snames) { $errorMsg .= "--- You did not select a name for editing."; } else if(!$family) { $errorMsg .= "--- You did not enter a family name."; } else if(!$given) { $errorMsg .= "--- You did not enter a given name."; } else { exit(); } }// close if post echo $errorMsg; ?> Hey, I'm using a script which allows you to click on a calendar to select the date to submit to the database. The date is submitted like this: 2014-02-08 Is there a really simple way to prevent rows showing if the date is in the past? Something like this: if($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. 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. 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? (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 Hi there, I have a string '12/04/1990', that's in the format dd/mm/yyyy. I'm attempting to convert that string to a Date, and then insert that date into a MySQL DATE field. The problem is, every time I try to do so, I keep getting values like this in the database: 1970-01-01. Any ideas? Much appreciated. Hi guys, I'm putting together a small event system where I want the user to add his own date and time into a textfield (I'll probably make this a series of drop-downs/a date picker later). This is then stored as a timestamp - "0000-00-00 00:00:00" which displays fine until I try to echo it out as a UK date in this format - jS F Y, which just gives today's date but not the inputted date. Here's the code I have right now: Code: [Select] $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM stuff.events ORDER BY eventdate ASC"); echo "<br />"; echo mysql_result($result, $i, 'eventvenue'); echo ", "; $dt = new DateTime($eventdate); echo $dt->format("jS F Y"); In my mysql table eventdate is set up as follows: field - eventdate type - timestamp length/values - blank default - current_timestamp collation - blank attributes - on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP null - blank auto_increment - blank Any help as to why this could be happening would be much appreciated, thanks. 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]"; } ?> Hi Guys.. How can I change a date on the fly ? Everything is UTC on my server. How can I change a date to something else on the fly? Ie: $timezone = "cet"; $datetime = "2011-09-04 19:53:00"; echo $datetime($timezone); So I can give it a datetime and have it echo the datetime as if it were in the other timezone? Thanks Graham Hi, I am trying to convert a String date into numeric date using PHP function's, but haven't found such function. Had a look at date(), strtotime(), getdate(); e.g. Apr 1 2011 -> 04-01-2011 Could someone please shed some light on this? Regards, Abhishek I'm getting this Time Zone error. Perhaps it's a compatibility issue with PHP 5.3. Looked all over for an answer without finding one. Here is the error message Warning: date() [function.date]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/New_York' for 'EST/-5.0/no DST' instead in /blocked.php on line 41 12/02/12 Here is the code. Line 41 is near the bottom, the one with the d,m,y. Perhaps the echo date (d/m/y") needs to be changed. Appreciate any help!
