Question

I’m working with a table and there is field in my table which stores raw time() function value as date.

I want to get rows with today date from this table .

So i figure out when time() func returns a 10 digit number like 1316352184 the first 5 digits are for year , month , day which i need for getting today’s date and the rest is for hour minute Second which i dont need

So i get today without hour and… like

$t = time();
$t = $t /100000;
$today =(int)$t;

Now i need to get rows with today date from the table but i’m not sure how to do that.

How can i get first 5 digits of stored date in database in my query to compare it with $date?

Something like this:

$sql = "SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE ((int)date/100000) as date = $today ; 

Answer 1

select * from table
where from_unixtime(unix_timestamp_field,'%Y-%m-%d') = curdate()
