]]> If you have to create a date object of future or past, you can do it by using the second parameter of PHP date function. This is extremely useful when doing BETWEEN comparison in MySQL. You can build the date and bind it to query.

For Tomorrow

<?php
echo date("D F d Y",strtotime("+1 days")); 
// Same applies for months e.g. "+1 months"
?>

For Yesterday

<?php
echo date("D F d Y",strtotime("-1 days")); 
// Same applies for months e.g. "-1 months"
?>

If you want to select all records which are not older than 7 days the syntex will be;

<?php
$sql = "select * from table where postedDate > '" . date("Y-m-d",strtotime("-7 days")) . "'";
?>

If you want to select subscriptions of the user which have been made in last two months you can do it by;

<?php
$sql = "select * from table where postedDate > '" . date("Y-m-d",strtotime("-2 months")) . "'";
?>

If you want to select some records which are one month old you can do it;

<?php
$sql = "select * from table where postedDate > '" . date("Y-m-d",strtotime("-1 months")) . "'";
?>

]]> We can find out the difference between two given dates in PHP very easily. Consider the following PHP script:

<?php
function dateDiff($dformat, $endDate, $beginDate)
{
           $date_parts1=explode($dformat, $beginDate);
           $date_parts2=explode($dformat, $endDate);
           $start_date=gregoriantojd($date_parts1[1], $date_parts1[0], $date_parts1[2]);
           $end_date=gregoriantojd($date_parts2[1], $date_parts2[0], $date_parts2[2]);
           return $end_date - $start_date;
}
// adjust date parts according to date format 102 for d-m-y and 012 for m-d-y
$date1="30-06-2008";
$date2="06-08-2008";
print "If we minus " . $date1 . " from " . $date2 . " we get " . dateDiff("-", $date2, $date1) . ".";
?>

Result will be
If we minus 30-06-2008 from 06-08-2008 we get 37

]]> Date and time in PHP is very useful and handy because it provides you the result of time and date, in the way you want. Using Date and Time functions in flash we can display date and time at website in a number of ways and formats. Below are some examples and best practices.

Below the script shows you how to create and use the date and time functions.

<?PHP
echo date("D M d, Y H:i:s");
?>

OR

<?php
echo "The time is ";
echo date('H:i:s'); // Hours, minutes, seconds
echo " and the date is ";
echo date('j F Y'); // Day name, month name, year
?>

This will output: Fri Jan 03, 2003 12:01:21 (or the current date/time)
To change the formatting of the date and time you only need to change the syntax in the quotes to suit your new purpose.

<?PHP
echo date("D, d.m.Y");
?>

It will provide you with this result. i.e. (Tue, 13.06.2006)

Simply put this code into your web page and save webpage in php extension and you will get date and time displayed at your website.

Formatting

<?php
// Assuming today is: March 10th, 2001, 5:16:18 pm
 
$today = date("F j, Y, g:i a"); // March 10, 2001, 5:16 pm
$today = date("m.d.y"); // 03.10.01
$today = date("j, n, Y"); // 10, 3, 2001
$today = date("Ymd"); // 20010310
$today = date('h-i-s, j-m-y, it is w Day z '); // 05-16-17, 10-03-01, 1631 1618 6 Fripm01
$today = date('\i\t \i\s \t\h\e jS \d\a\y.'); // It is the 10th day.
$today = date("D M j G:i:s T Y"); // Sat Mar 10 15:16:08 MST 2001
$today = date('H:m:s \m \i\s\ \m\o\n\t\h'); // 17:03:17 m is month
$today = date("H:i:s"); // 17:16:17
?>
