PHP - Retrieving Date/time From Database
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 Similar TutorialsI have the date stored as: date( "d/m/Y" ) After it's pulled from the database, I would like it to display like: date( "F j, Y" ) I have tried below, but the output makes d the month and m the day. $dateStamp = strtotime($row['startrepeat']); $dateFormatted = date("F j, Y", $dateStamp); Currently the date is stored in the database as 28-02-2011 - 21:00:30 and the variable is: $date['mTime'] How can I format it too look "pretty" like this: February 28, 2011 - 10:00 PM? (don't need the seconds) Hi, I have a problem. i want to show the current date and time in my tables of the database. I want to show it because i want to show it on my report generated in php. By the way i do not have a "date" field in my form. Can anyone help me out? Thanks, Heshan. Hey guys, How would I go about subtracting Today from a previous day to find the difference? For example, I want to subtract TODAY from a previous date in my database, to determine if the difference is greater than 1 day. Any ideas? I tried doing the subraction in TIMESTAMPS, but when I convert the date back to Y-m-d H:i:s, I got some weird year and time. PHP date and time function is not showing correct time on my local system I have the following php code date_default_timezone_set("Africa/Lagos"); $date = date('d-m-y h:i:s'); echo "Server Time ".$date ."<br>"; echo "The time is " . date("h:i:sa")."<br>"; $current_datetime = date("Y-m-d") . ' ' . date("H:i:s", STRTOTIME(date('h:i:sa'))); echo "Current time1: ".$current_datetime . "<br>";
Output
Server Time 21-05-21 09:55:39
Expected Output
Server Time 21-05-21 10:55:39
Any help would be appreciated. Edited May 21 by Ponel How to output a MySQL timestamp field to correct local time with daylight saving with PHP?
Local time is set in php.ini with: date.timezone = "Europe/London"
Confirmed set with: <?php echo date_default_timezone_get(); ?>
But when I echo the timestamp field it does not display correct UK time for the record (an hour behind correct UK time).
<?php echo date('jS F Y - g:ia', strtotime($row['Date'])); ?>
Code: [Select] $query = mysql_query("SELECT a.*, b.* FROM friendlist a INNER JOIN friendlist b ON (a.friendemail=b.friendemail) INNER JOIN users c ON (b.friendemail = c.EmailAddress) WHERE a.email = 'asdf@gmail.com' AND c.Username LIKE '%carol%' GROUP BY a.id ORDER BY count(*) DESC"); Code: [Select] while ($showfriends = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { echo $showfriends['Username']; } and I would get nothing. It produces the correct number of <div> so i know it's getting through, but it's having trouble displaying the entries? Hey all, I've written a php search feature for a mysql database. The search returns a file name like sample.gif, how would I go about displaying the actual image instead? Since the images all have the same location could I have the search return the string into a variable then make the whole thing a link? Thanks. I am having a problem with PHP displaying the correct date and time. It updates as it should, but is fast by 4min and is always displaying a date in 2004. I ran a basic php script to make sure the application im using itself is not wrong. go to lunenburgledger.com/time.php Anybody had any ideas on where to check? The system time on the Windows Server 2003 is correct. The only thing I can think of is that it was converted to a virtual machine on vmware esxi, but the system time stayed right. Any ideas? Thanks! OK So I've got a datepicker that sends a date in d/m/y format. My DB stores the data in Unix Timestamp Which I can convert the date to with strtotime however this does the exact date & time. All I want is the actual day. I've spent hours trying to convert this with just the day with mixed results... Thanks. I have two tables. Table Name:Users Fields: User_name user_email user_level pwd 2.Reference Fields: refid username origin destination user_name in the users table and the username field in reference fields are common fields. There is user order form.whenever an user places an order, refid field in reference table will be updated.So the user will be provided with an refid Steps: 1.User needs to log in with a valid user id and pwd 2.Once logged in, there will be search, where the user will input the refid which has been provided to him during the time of order placement. 3.Now User is able to view all the details for any refid 3.Up to this we have completed. Query: Now we need to retrieve the details based on the user logged in. For eg: user 'USER A' has been provided with the referenceid '1234' during the time of order placement user 'USER B' has been provided with the referenceid '2468' during the time of order placement When the userA login and enter the refid as '2468' he should not get any details.He should get details only for the reference ids which is assigned to him. Hello people, currently i ran into some problem. Currently, i have a database called responses which have the fields of ID, Student_id, question_id, Answer. I had stored my results into the database which appeared to be 1 1 1 Agree 2 1 2 Disagree 3 3 4 Unsatisfied. So any recommendation on how should i do about in generating the result into a graph whereby the graph will show how many students choose "AGree" on that particular question THANKS I am working on a kind of CMS for my own website which no one else will be using but me as a way of improving my php skills, and am having problems with retrieving data from the database that holds both text and php code. I have searched the web and found that i should be using eval() for the code to be executed before it is send to the browser but cannot get it to work and can't find my mistake(s). the php code will always be the same, and is supposed to retrieve the id number of a page to use in a link (and works fine when tested by loading the code directly without retrieving it from the database) this is an example of data stored in the database Code: [Select] The <a href="page_builder.php?id=<?php echo $page->id('mines_DwarvenMines') ?>">Dwarven Mines</a> have a great selection of Ores,... Of course when I leave it like this, hovering over the link in my page will show exactly that and lead to nowhere Code: [Select] localhost/page_builder.php?id=<?php echo $page->id('mines_DwarvenMines') ?> Most of these links appear in tips given at the end of the page and are processed as followed Code: [Select] $questtips = $quest->getQuestTips(); $tips = ""; if ($questtips == "none") { $tips = "/"; } else { foreach($questtips as $tip) { $tips .= "<li>"; $tips .= $tip->getTip(); $tips .= "</li>"; } } and finally put on screen by the presentation layer as followed Code: [Select] <h2>Tips & Extra Info</h2> <div class="tipsList"> <ul> <?php echo $tips ?> </ul> </div> I have tried all sorts to get the code to be executed when retrieved from the database before being send to the browser so that this particular link would say "localhost/page_builder.php?id=57" but I cannot get it to work, though I suspect it is fairly easy. I suspect I would have to store the data in a different format in the database? And how exactly do I use the eval() function in my case? Could someone please adjust my code so that it does work? Thanks Hi, I have managed to get the code working to store a .jpg file in the database under the longblob type. Now all i have left to do is to retrieve that image and display it. So far i have this: list.php Code: [Select] while($r = mysql_fetch_array($sql)) { //for each record ... echo " <img src= getoutside.php?id='".$r[apartmentId]. " '> "; getoutside.php Code: [Select] <?php header("Content-type: image/jpg"); // act as a jpg file to browser $nId = $_GET['id']; include 'dbase.php'; //connect to database $sqlo = "SELECT outside FROM apartment WHERE apartmentId = $nId"; $oResult = mysql_query($sqlo); $oRow = mysql_fetch_array($oResult); $sJpg = $oRow["outside"]; echo $sJpg; ?> The result from this is a box with a red cross in it. Can anyone find a problem with this code please?

The subject could be a bit vague, but my problem is simple. (I think so) So I made a php test site that is quite similar to a forum. Where you see a title or a subject and when you click on it you will see more details about that subject. I made my database and script for inserting data into my mySQL database. I also did my output aswell, so every topic is posted on a webpage "archive" where you can see all the subjects. But now I want to see the full details of that type of subject by clicking on it. I have no idea how to make that happen googled it but didn't find any results...just wondering if it's even possible to do that. I'm a new guy here! |
