Awesome guys!!! Thanks for all your help!

Hi, I have been looking for a code that will display the number of minutes between two dates. I have a MySQLi database that has a field with as follows: `lastupdate` datetime NOT NULL, So I need to find the number of minutes only (not hours or days or seconds) and just minutes between that mysql "lastupdate" field which is a datetime. and a regular php time(). I can't seem to find a working solution. Any help will be appreciated. Manny

Anyone with some sample code please?? Thanks !

Is there a way to do this in the process? I don't want to delete the db and create a new one ... Thanks

I haven't had much experience with php and mysql, so I am asking for help on how to do the following in php: I have 4 fields that I created : start_date varchar(30); comments varchar(200); notify_user varchar(5); birthdate varchar(20); Now SOME records have been filled with the correct values BUT some values in some records have now() as a value instead of the actual data, in this example start_date. I want to change only the values in start_date that have the now() value to an actual date like : 1985/12/30 Can anyone show me a good example script on how to do this ? Thanks in advance guys !

Cool! Thanks for the reply ..later !

Hi, I tried looking around but couldn't find a source on how to add days OR months to a date in the following format 2007/01/29 It would be nice if someone could post such a script that will display the future date depending the amount of months OR the number of days the user inputs. So if the user start date is 2007/01/31 and the user type 1 month the script will display 2007/02/01 to compensate for the leap years and months that are less then the one set. Anyone with such a script? Thank you in advance!

Thanks! I was thinking of that too but I am trying to see how it would work by placing a POST and getting a variable from it too

Darn, another language I need to learn Ohh Well... Thanks !

Hi, does anyone know here an easy way to have a script make a "call home" to verify data on another server? I was thinking of using like a POST but the user needs to activate it, so I understand there is another way using fsockopen but don't understand it much. Anyone has a simlar idea? Source code examples would be appreciate it ! Thanks in advance guys !

Thanks guys for all the replies. I will see if I can find something cheap :) ..Later !

Hi, I was wondering if someone knows a way to run a php script everyday at midnight, automaticly, without the use of a cronos system since I don't think every host has that capability and if they do, it will be likely not free :( Thanks in advance guys !
