So, try ... $sql = "SELECT id,case,startdate,enddate FROM table WHERE startdate<='$thisdate' AND enddate>='$thisdate' ORDER BY startdate"; I'm surprised you don't get an error.... Ah. As it stands, the SQL is something like ... WHERE startdate <= 2010 - 3 - 3 So, probably the actual test that is being executed is .... WHERE startdate <= 2004 Which, for a date stamp will never return anything sensible.
