    Re: Time Stamp Order

    I would actually recommend that you use a MySql Datetime data type and then use a group by query to get the data back.

    You can convert a unix time stamp to a MySql date using the following:
    PHP Code:
    $mysql date("Y-m-d H:i:s"$unix_timestamp); 
    The following query will then return a row for each date and the umber of records corresponding to that date:
    Code:
    SELECT DATE_FORMAT(date_field, "%b %d") Day,Count(*) FROM table_name GROUP BY Day;
