Caesar Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 But it's always easier if your dates were stored in the form of unix timestamps...that way, queries are easy as pie...and you can do any date formatting you want, [i]after[/i] you pull the data from the db. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domic Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 Ok, but I don't need "now", i only want today, so from that date i need this 00-[b]00[/b]-0000 00:00:00Because, if I use this variable: $num=mysql_numrows($result); it will always be 0.
