Question

Here is my mysql query. What I want to extract is; all rows that is inserted in past 6 days including today too. Here is my query

    $user_ids = $_SESSION['user_ids']; //its array
    $cs_user_ids =implode(",",$user_ids);


  SELECT fb_user.name,schedule.id,schedule.location,schedule.arrival,
   schedule.departure,schedule.notes,schedule.lat,
   schedule.lon,schedule.who_can_c_me
  FROM schedule,fb_user
  WHERE    EXTRACT(DAY FROM arrival)
  BETWEEN  EXTRACT(DAY FROM DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 6 DAY))
  AND      EXTRACT(DAY FROM CURDATE())
  AND      EXTRACT(DAY FROM departure)
  BETWEEN  EXTRACT(DAY FROM DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 6 DAY))
  AND      EXTRACT(DAY FROM CURDATE())
  AND      fb_user.fb_id = schedule.fb_id 
  AND fb_user.fb_id IN($cs_user_ids)

I want OR here in place of AND EXTRACT(DAY FROM departure) in this very statment. Because I need either arrival or departure date but it’s not working with OR it’s working with AND and I don’t need that. Whats awry in my query? I guess problem with ()

try this way using parenthesis bracket

"SELECT fb_user.name,schedule.id,schedule.location,schedule.arrival,schedule.departure,schedule.notes,schedule.lat,schedule.lon,schedule.who_can_c_me
  FROM schedule,fb_user
  WHERE    EXTRACT(DAY FROM arrival)
  (BETWEEN  EXTRACT(DAY FROM DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 6 DAY)) AND EXTRACT(DAY FROM CURDATE()))

  OR      
  EXTRACT(DAY FROM departure)
  (BETWEEN  EXTRACT(DAY FROM DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 6 DAY)) AND EXTRACT(DAY FROM CURDATE()))

  AND fb_user.fb_id = schedule.fb_id 
  AND fb_user.fb_id IN($cs_user_ids)"
