This isn't really a PHP question, is it?  This is a function of your
database, and since you don't mention which database you are using it is a
bit hard to answer.  Assuming MySQL, there is an entire chapter in the
MySQL docs on exactly how to do this:

http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Date_and_time_functions.html

If it is another database, go read the appropriate docs, or ask on a
mailing list related to that database.
