I have a table:
michael=# \d healthnotes
Table "public.healthnotes"
Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+--------------------------
+-------------------------------------------------------------
posted | timestamp with time zone | not null default
('now'::text)::timestamp(6) with time zone
notes | text |
Indexes: healthnotes_pkey primary key btree (posted)
Often there are multiple entries per day. I want to display the day
once, with all the entries on that day.
So do I select * from notes and group by date, then write a nested
for-loop in php that ignores the extra timestamp items? Seems a little
inelegant. Or can I select distinct timestamps somehow after converting
them to dates?
Not sure how to go about this.
Another question: I want to echo in an html page the timestamp and the
note after it is entered. What php-pgsql commands do this?
