Re: Is this the most effient to do with php an mysql?

using mysql is better then using php. SELECT y_id, year FROM Year WHERE year <= year(curdate) ORDER BY year desc; Paul Goepfert wrote:

Hi all, I have a table of years going from 1985 - 2008. These years represent the purchase year. I have created a SQL statement that selects the years that are available for purchase years. For example 2006 -1985. Here is the SQL statement I created to produce that output. SELECT y_id, year FROM Year WHERE year <= extract(year from now()) ORDER BY year desc; Is there a more efficient way to do this using more PHP and less mysql? Thanks Paul
