Hi,

TIA...

1) Need to select all rows from table called fixtures where home_team and
away_team is equal to team_code. What SQL select statement would do this?

2) I have a variable called fixture_date in the format dd-MMM-yy (i.e.
02-Mar-05) how do I select the day/month/year into thier own variables using
PHP?

Thanks
Andy Mak

reasons why you won't get a response or will be plonked...

1. asking questions one is obviously too lazy to rtfm to answer.
2. wasting everyone's time asking noob questions when the answer is *IN* the
gdfm instead of rtfm in the first place.
3. referring to "examples" that don't work without a reference either to it
or posting one's OWN non-functional code so we can clear up ONE's inability
to understand it. (my suspicion being that the fault is yours and NOT any
other code to which you refer!).
4. insisting that asking noob questions w/o first trying to resolve an issue
one's self is the BEST way to get an answer or solution to a problem.
5. 'cos one believes a response to said question(s) was aimed at HELPING one
out of one's dilemma RATHER THAN taking it - as the rest of us do - as a
blatant insult to the POSTER in the solution's OBVIOUS simplicity!

your assumptions are grossly inaccurate and illogical...which are wholly
what software developers LOATH !!!

RTFM !!!

I found the tutorial on the mysql site a very worthwhile half an hour

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/tutorial.html

hmmmm...php.net; mysql.com.

hardly a vision quest, now is it!

if they hired you to do this quick/dirty program, they've obviously failed
before you began to work on it.

but that discussion is for another day.

I posted the link to help you but also to show that a great tutorial is
right on the site where you actually get mysql. This is often the case.
And when that is a problem try searches like this in google

mysql tutorial
php tutorial
xhtml tutorial

I try to ask questions in a forum when I have tried with reasonable
effort but failed on my own.
