Question

I’m having a question concerning a mysql query.

What I want to achieve is the to write a query that says:

SELECT * 
FROM Table
WHERE Col1 = 'something' AND Col2 = 'something' AND 
         ( Col3 = 'Something' OR Col3 = 'Something');

So it looks the same as you whould use conditional statements in php: (notice the braces around the or 😉 )

if ( $i == 'something' and ($k == 'something' || $k == 'something') ){
//Do something
}

or maybe there is another/better way to do that?

(EDIT)
I know now that the query is correct. Thank you for confirming that to me. Below is part of the query that keeps failing.

SELECT * 
FROM Table
WHERE Condition1 = 'something'
AND(
 Enddate = DATE(DATE_ADD(NOW(), INTERVAL -1 DAY)) 
OR 
 Enddate = DATE(DATE_ADD(NOW(), INTERVAL -2 DAY)) 
) 

Probably something obvious but I can’t seem to find it.

(SOLVED)

Hey sorry for the question.
I just figured out that the query mist a closing brace somewhere just after the above code.

Instead of writing OR conditions, you can use IN clause

SELECT * 
FROM Table
WHERE Col1 = 'something1' AND 
      Col2 = 'something2' AND 
      Col3 IN('Something3','Something4');
