Hi ncasares,

I understand there's more to this project that Damon is quoting for you, but here's some code for the date part you asked about. It will set a variable with how many "days old" a record is based on it's date and then test that to display new for the first 30 days.

<?php
$secondsOld = time() - strtotime($record['date']);
$daysOld = intval($secondsOld/60/60/24);
?>
Days old: <?php echo $daysOld ?><br/>

<?php if ($daysOld <= 30): ?> NEW! <?php endif ?>

Hope that helps!

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the info. I've gone ahead with a consulting project on this one, but I'm sure the info is useful to the community. Thanks.
