Compare only day and month with date field in mysql

Question

How to compare only day and month with date field in mysql? For example, I\'ve a date in one table: 2014-07-10

Similarly, another date 2000-07-10<

Answer 1

you can do it with the DAYOFMONTH and MONTH function:

SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE DAYOFMONTH(field) = 31 AND MONTH(field) = 12 AND id = 1;

EDIT: Of course you can write following too if you want to compare two fields:

SELECT *
FROM table
WHERE 
    DAYOFMONTH(field) = DAYOFMONTH(field2) 
    AND MONTH(field) = MONTH(field2) 
    AND id = 1 ...;

for further information have a look at the manual:

1. MONTH
2. DAYOFMONTH
