I gave up with the timestamp feature because although it's accurate it's not English and needs to be reworked to make it presentable.
Despite finding code to do this I still moved on to using a date\time stamp using the US format of-course and this echoes much easier and will of-course be easier to perform calculations on. Hope that helps some... -- ----------------------------- Michael Mason Arras People www.arraspeople.co.uk ----------------------------- "Mag" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Hi, > I have a field in the db called > > join_date_time(timestamp 14) > > which has data like: > > 20040928170708 > 20040916163619 > etc > > This keeps track of the customer join date, I need to > know if the client has joined in the last 24hrs or > more than 24hrs back... > > Anybody have a function for this? or can help? am a > bit confused because reading on google I see that > there are 2 possible problems as MySql has its own > time and PHP its own time (most of the time!).... > > Thanks, > Mag > > ===== > ------ > - The faulty interface lies between the chair and the keyboard. > - Creativity is great, but plagiarism is faster! > - Smile, everyone loves a moron. :-) > > > > _______________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Declare Yourself - Register online to vote today! > http://vote.yahoo.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
