I have a table with all the star signs, in the table are the fields 'Name','From','To'. Both the 'From' and 'To' are an integer of the relevant dates eg in the 'Gemini' row I have:
Gemini, 521, 621 (521 means May 21st, 621 means June 21st). I hope I'm explaining my self ok.
You should use a regular date column for your "from" and "to" dates.
Now in the users table I have date of birth stored in the Date format eg; 1979-06-20.
Here is my current stab at this.
SELECT * FROM users WHERE MONTH(user_data.User_DOB) >= 5 AND DAYOFMONTH(user_data.User_DOB) >= 21 AND MONTH(user_data.User_DOB) <= 6 AND DAYOFMONTH(user_data.User_DOB) <= 21
and then you can do something like this:
WHERE DAYOFYEAR(user_data.User_DOB) BETWEEN DAYOFYEAR(startable.from) AND DAYOFYEAR(startable.to)
