Continuing with paco@velocity.net's note from above dated: 20-Jul-2000 05:50 I found the best way to retreive a date from MySQL so it will work with the DATE() function is the MySQL function UNIX_TIMESTAMP(). Also note that If your SELECT looks like this: SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(datefield) FROM table; the fieldname will return as: "UNIX_TIMESTAMP(datetimefield)" to prevent that use: SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(datefield) AS datefield FROM table;
