So what did you get? Did it work? (No. I doubt it...) Don't just post a "question" like "Here's what I'm doing...fix it"
Anyway, your really wasting your time by not using a date or timestamp column. If you don't understand why or realize how easy it is to change it, you've got a lot of learning to do. The only way you can do it with a char column is to select the entire database, load it into a PHP array, using strtotime() to (hopefully) convert "May 29, 2002", etc, into a unix timestamp, and then sort by that timestamp. You just make things more difficult with a char column. I hope you don't have any more queries based on time or date... ---John Holmes... > -----Original Message----- > From: andy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, June 06, 2002 2:02 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP] date problem > > Hi there, > > I would like to count the users out of a mysql db who registered after a > certain date. > > The column I have in the db is a char and I do not want to change this > anymore. > This is how a typical entry looks like: May 29, 2002 > > This is how I tryed it: > > // while '10...' is unix timestamp june 1, 02 > SELECT COUNT(*) AS c > FROM users_table > WHERE UNIX_TIMESTAMP( user_regdate ) > '1022882400' > > Thanx for any help on that, > > andy > > > > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
