Close. He's trying to use the shell's back tick operator in MySQL. I think. It would actually work if the date +%Y%m%d was outside of the quotes he is wrapping around his query, as then he'd be using PHP's backticks operator which is very much like a shell backticks operator. Though using PHP date() function, as already suggested, would be MUCH faster. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
