find month, have hour, minute, day, week and year

59 New Member
the problem is, i have a dynamic database driven site, each data is entered with year, week etc.. 2 months ago assuming I'll create sort option in future i put everything, i.e year, week, hour, minute etc.. but forgot month. Now i'm adding sort option but i need month but not available

during database entry i use the following.

[PHP]
$year = date('Y');
$week = date('W');
$day = date('d');
$hour = date('H');
$minute = date('i');.[/PHP]

Any way to find month using week?

Hi.

How exactly is your table designed?

It would be far more efficient to use DateTime or TimeStamp to store dates. You can convert them into anything else with very little effort

oh sure!

You see i had the value of time() stored as id on all entries, i used time() to generate it so that i will have unique id's but it came in handy afterall i just used the value of id and found month.

example:
[PHP]date("m", 1192669707);[/PHP]

The thought occured to me when Atli mentioned TimeStamps. :)

Hi! I'm writing a script that would sort some events and calculate the sum of them all in the end of the month, which should be equal to the number of days in a month. It seems to be working well, but for some reason on march it calculates one hour less (30 days and 23:00:00) and in october one hour more (31 days 1:00:00). I've tried different years not just 2007. It's all the same. Anyone knows a good reason why this might happen as it...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
