Re: Newbie: phpmyadmin and searching Unix Timestamps

So how would you build the query without knowing the unix TimeStamp as '1111527115' is the current date ? I am trying to build the query so it dynamically know what to look for like SELECT * FROM SessionTable WHERE MONTH(from_unixtime(all available records)) = 'March'; is something like this possible ? many thanks g On Mysql (works on 4.0 atleast), you can use the FROM_UNIXTIME() function to convert a unix timestamp back to universal date/time format. From then on you can use any standard mysql date/time functions to compare the month. So your query becomes something like: SELECT * FROM SessionTable WHERE MONTH(from_unixtime(1111527115)) = 3; MONTH() returns a numeric month number from 1-12. See the mysql documentation on date and time functions here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/date-and-time-functions.html Hope this helps. On Mar 22, 2005, at 1:35 PM, Bastien Koert wrote:
