I've got this dropdown trying to call the data in...basically, I only want it to show if it is an upcoming event. Past events are hidden away in the archives.

 

I can get it to work if I remove the if ($row['date'] etc, but not with it in. Can anyone spot any errors with my code?

 

<?php
$query  = "SELECT description FROM events";
$result = mysql_query($query);
echo "<select name=\"events\">";
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
if ($row['date'] >= date('Y-m-d')){
	displayEvents($row);
	echo "<option name=\"description\" value=\"$row[description]\" class=\"formstyles\" />$row[description]</option>";
	}
} 
?>

Like this?

 

<?php
$query  = "SELECT description FROM events";
$result = mysql_query($query);
echo "<select name=\"events\">";
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
if (strotime($row['date']) >= strtotime(date("Y-m-h"))){
	displayEvents($row);
	echo "<option name=\"description\" value=\"$row[description]\" class=\"formstyles\" />$row[description]</option>";
	}
} 
?>

 

Cos that one didn't work...hmmm...

Got it!

 

<?php
$query  = "SELECT * FROM events ORDER BY date, time";
$result = mysql_query($query);
echo "<select name=\"events\">";
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
if ($row['date'] >= date('Y-m-d')){
	displayEvents($row);
	echo "<option name=\"description\" value=\"$row[description]\" class=\"formstyles\" />$row[description]</option>";
	}
} 
?>
