harkly Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I would like to use this code to calculate ages. SELECT name, birth, CURDATE(), (YEAR(CURDATE())-YEAR(birth)) (RIGHT(CURDATE(),5)<RIGHT(birth,5)) AS age FROM pet; I got it from http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/date-calculations.html and can get it to work in the mysql command line but I have no idea how to display "age" on my webpage. This is my code $result = mysql_query("SELECT userID, birth_date, CURDATE(), (YEAR(CURDATE())-YEAR(birth_date)) - (RIGHT(CURDATE(),5)<RIGHT(birth_date,5)) AS age FROM user WHERE userID = 'kelly'") or die(mysql_error()); while ($r=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $userID=$r['userID']; $birth_date=$r['birth_date']; } echo " \n"; ?> Can anyone help?
