I have adjusted my code, but the output I get is not as desired. It sorts
the people by year instead of sorting them just by dd/mm.
I also don't want to display the whole list of birthdays after today, I just
want to display the next or upcoming 2 birthdays after today.
Like for instance:
Michael Smith - Fri 01 Apr 1955
Carlo van Wyk - Tue 19 Apr 1966
Remington Steele - Sat 02 Feb 1974
Jean Durand - Tue 19 Apr 1977
instead of:
Michael Smith - Fri 01 Apr 1955
Jean Durand - Tue 19 Apr 1977
herewith my code:
<cfquery name="test" datasource="trams_local" dbtype="ODBC">
select *
from BirthDay
where dateofbirth > #dateformat(now(), "DD/MM")#
order by dateofbirth ASC
</cfquery>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Date of Birth</title>
</head>
<body>
<cfoutput query="test">
#FirstName# #LastName# - #dateformat(DateofBirth, "DDD DD MMM YYYY")# <br>
</cfoutput>
</body>
</html>
