Question:
How to do using SQL command + PHP?
Current (working…)
$today = date("Y/m/d");
$sql = SELECT * FROM places WHERE STR_TO_DATE(data, '%d/%m/%y') >= '".$today."' ORDER BY DATE_FORMAT(data, '%d/%m/%y') ASC LIMIT 8";
But all records are listed
I would strongly recommend updating your stored values to the standard MySQL date field type – this will greatly simplify any queries you write and enable you to use all the standard MySQL date and time functions.
You can follow the answer here Converting a date in MySQL from string field to find out how to convert your data.
