I have database "db2" with table "menjava"
In table menjava have "id", "author" and "date_submitted" field
- id - auto_increment
- author - int(11)
- date_submitted - datetime
I want to count all the rows for todays date and all the rows for yesterdays date (so there will be two codes with conditions) based on a DATETIME field called 'date_submitted' that holds the date and time of each record's creation.
In the file result.php, there is this count displayed, but it does not work. In the same file (result.php) I have some other code to display data from different database, so I think that povezava.php is working ok.
My code:
<?
require "povezava.php";
$q=mysql_query(" SELECT COUNT(*) AS total_number FROM menjava
WHERE date_submitted >= DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)",$link2);
// now you can
if ( $nt = mysql_fetch_array($q)){
echo $nt["total_number"];
$q=mysql_query($nt) or die(mysql_error());
}
?>
my file povezava.php looks like this:
<?
$servername='localhost';
$dbusername='user';
$dbpassword='pass';
$dbname1='db1';
$dbname2='db2';
$link1 = connecttodb($servername,$dbname1,$dbusername,$dbpassword);
$link2 = connecttodb($servername,$dbname2,$dbusername,$dbpassword);
function connecttodb($servername,$dbname,$dbusername,$dbpassword)
{
$link=mysql_connect ("$servername","$dbusername","$dbpassword",TRUE);
if(!$link){die("Could not connect to MySQL");}
mysql_select_db("$dbname",$link) or die ("could not open db".mysql_error());
return $link;
}
?>
Error that I get:
A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: NoticeMessage: Array to string conversionFilename: templates/master.phpLine Number: 231 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'Array' at line 1
Fixed:
<?
require "povezava.php";
$q=mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) AS total_number FROM menjava WHERE date_submitted >= DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE(), INTERVAL 0 DAY)",$link2);
// working
if ( $nt = mysql_fetch_array($q)){
echo $nt["total_number"];
}
?>
Thank you!
