Hello, i'm new to mysql, so please bear with me...
My database has a field called datafield as datetime. I want to display just the date #1 this works but gives the full datetime $result = mysql_query ("SELECT title, description, url, author, datefield FROM documents"); #2 All I have read on the web/books suggests that this is what to do $result = mysql_query ("SELECT title, description, url, author, date_format(datefield, %M %D %Y') FROM documents"); This just leaves out all dates. Can anyone see where I'm going wrong Thank you so much Jules --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
