Okay, I've got 2 tables. One has fields user, exp_date, the other has a bunch of fields including user. If the exp_date from the first table is greater than $somedate (probably today's date), then I don't want to show the records from the 2nd table. Get it?
So how do I do this? It doesn't seem apparently obvious to me how to do it in a single, or multiple sql queries. Thanks. >>> "Maxim Maletsky" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 04/03/02 12:51PM >>> first of all your data seems to come from a DB to me. If it's so then read your DB manual for date functions. It would be way better and faster. Otherwise, if you're so keen to let this duty job up to PHP then convert both dates into UNIX time format 'maketime()' deduct the values and put them through the 'date()' function.
