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
