Does not work. it clears my table.

Well, the query does not clear your table. Maybe something else you have is doing that, but definitely not the query.

$query = "SELECT name, date, time, queue FROM sms_traffic_db.table_data WHERE date = CURDATE()";

Okay sorted it out CURDATE works i used it wrong

Good work!

P.S. It was my mistake for not seeing your MySQL tag.

Solution 2

Now() + 1 Day = [Yesterday, Tomorrow] (but tomorrow doesn't exist yet, so...)

Have a look to:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/date-and-time-functions.html[^]

Have you tried the CURDATE (Current date = today)´

Or you get the NOW and then use the DATE to extract the current day for your query.

Working query copied from OP's Comment below to be easier to spot

SQL

$query = "SELECT name, date, time, queue FROM sms_traffic_db.table_data WHERE date = CURDATE()";

i have tried CURDATE(Current date = today) and NOW and Date does not work

Did you try to debug when using them? Logic says they should work, you say they don't... How are you using them? Which value is actually being used in the query? How is the date format of the DB you are querying?

Please use the "improve question" widget and give a bit info about the tests you did. Maybe someone else can spot your error in the new code.
