Question

I have 7 rows in my table like “Date1”,”Date2″… they´re all dateTime, and i need to make a query to select the day, if is the today like:
"Select id,Date1 if Date1==today,Date2 if Date2==today etc..."

the problem is i have the time wich can be any hour in the day,but wherever the time is e need to be based on the day, ignoring the time.

Theres a better way to do that?

Use the DATE() function to compare only the date values of the datetime fields:

DATE(expr)

Extracts the date part of the date or datetime expression expr.

SELECT DATE('2011-10-27 16:20:00'); # => 2011-10-27

SELECT id, Date1
    FROM ...
    WHERE DATE(Date1) = CURDATE()
