Re: [PHP-DB] comparing stored timestamp with NOW()

$days = 7;
$now = date(Y-m-d);
$timestamp = /*your defined stamp */;
$query = "SELECT * from TABLE WHERE DATEDIFF('$timestamp', '$now')<=7";

I think that is the query you want? Unless I'm misreading the manual -
which is entirely possible.

Conversely you can just use DATEDIFF('$timestamp', DATE())<=7 as well.
The only thing you need to make sre is that your $timestamp is in
YYYY-MM-DD format.
