i am trying to retrieve fields from a database that will bring all rows where payment is either due within the next 7 days or overdue using the following code

[code=php]$week=time()+604800;
$week=date(“Y-m-d”,$week);
$query=mysql_query(“SELECT * FROM users WHERE paydate<=$week ORDER BY paydate DESC”);[/code]

but this doesnt work at all, any ideas

@unknown_strikerFeb 18.2004 — Maybe try putting $week in single quotes? ie.

[code=php]$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE paydate <= '$week' ORDER BY paydate DESC");[/code]

@nutheadauthorFeb 21.2004 — its ok, i figured it out i changed

$week=date("Y-m-d",$week);

to

$week=date(Ymd,$week);

it was treating the $week var as a string, not a number :rolleyes:

Success!
