Hi. I'm modifying the 'quotes' script in chapter 13 to include a statement before the quotes that indicates a 'new' or 'recent' quote if the quote was entered within the last 30 days. I know I need to use $row[date_entered] (type timestamp in mysql, e.g. 2014-03-09 13:25:11). Is there a function to compare that timestamp with today (in number of days)? Thanks. -
This statement works fine as it is echo '<p>'.$query_row['name'].'</p>'; But how would it be possible to turn '<p>'.$query_row['name'].'</p>' into a variable that could be called back by a print or echo statement ? A not working example $myvar = '<p>'.$query_row['name'].'</p>'; echo $myvar; Does anyone know how this is possible? -
Hello Forum - hello Larry - - I'm working on a Mac, OS X Version 10.5.8. When I write a quote that contains an apostrophe to quotes.txt file, for example -- I've wasted my hours. - Leonardo da Vinci -- somehow a backslash appears before the apostrophe in the text file, and the same quote inside quotes.txt looks like this: I\'ve wasted my hours. - Leonardo da Vinci When I get the same quote from the text file via php back to the browser in view_quote.php, the backslash is displayed. The backslash also appears before double quotes: \"I've wasted my hours.\" - Leonardo da Vinci Why do backslashes appear, and what can I do to remove them? Thank you! - Dimitri Vorontzov -
