PHP MYsql 使用时间戳比较删除语法的问题

Question

All I am trying to do is delete rows in a column that have a timestamp more than 2 days old.

I have tried a lot of things I have seen on here, but none of them seem to be working.

This is the code:

$delquery = $tapeDB->query('DELETE FROM newsItems WHERE news_date < TIMESTAMPADD(DAY,-2,NOW());

These are the errors I am getting on that line:

Warning: Unexpected character in input: ''' (ASCII=39) state=1 in... Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in...

This should be really easy but I can't figure out what I am doing wrong.

Answer 1

you forgot the closing quote

$delquery = $tapeDB->query('DELETE FROM newsItems WHERE news_date < TIMESTAMPADD(DAY,-2,NOW()');
