Question

I imagine this is pretty simple, but can\'t figure it out. I\'m trying to make a few pages - one which will contain results selected from my mysql db\'s table for today, thi

Answer 1

I think using NOW() function is incorrect for getting time difference. Because by NOW() function every time your are calculating the past 24 hours. You must use CURDATE() instead.

    function your_function($time, $your_date) {
    if ($time == 'today') {
        $timeSQL = ' Date($your_date)= CURDATE()';
    }
    if ($time == 'week') {
        $timeSQL = ' YEARWEEK($your_date)= YEARWEEK(CURDATE())';
    }
    if ($time == 'month') {
        $timeSQL = ' Year($your_date)=Year(CURDATE()) AND Month(`your_date`)= Month(CURDATE())';
    }

    $Sql = "SELECT * FROM jokes WHERE ".$timeSQL
    return $Result = $this->db->query($Sql)->result_array();
}
