Hello, I've got a question regarding the comparison of a date and year to a timestamp. I've got blog entries that get a timestamp on their way into my database (mysql). I'm programming an "archives" section, and I can't seem to select the info using month and year. Basically what I want to do is say:
select all artices where the month of the timestamp = $given_month AND year of the timestamp = $given_year.
To accomplish the above I tried (note: blog_date is the timestamp in the db):
SELECT * FROM blog_entries WHERE MONTH(blog_date) = 'january' AND YEAR(blog_date) = 2009.
The error I'm getting is unknown column MONTH(blog_date), etc....
How do I go about selecting articles based on the timestamp when given the month and year of the article?
Thanks!
Greg
UPDATE: I've resolved the issue. It seems the CodeIgniter PHP framework likes to auto protect field names (and was doing so incorrectly) in my queries. I got it all worked out. Thanks!
