Can't get list working correctly

[joe_ma]

On a site for a band I want to list all the gigs of the band, divided in three sections, coming up, today, past gigs.

To produce the list I have the following code:

<?php
	$timestamp = time();
	$t = date("d.m.Y", $timestamp);
	$heute  = $pages->find("parent=/konzertliste/, Datum=$t");
	$gigs = $pages->find("parent=/konzertliste/, Datum>$t, sort=Datum");
	$gigspast = $pages->find("parent=/konzertliste/, Datum<$t, sort=-Datum");
	
	if (count($heute)) {
		echo "<h2>Heute</h2>"; //todays gigs, if any
		echo "<div class='block-group gig_list'>";		
		echo "<p class='block gig_date'>{$heute->Datum}, {$heute->Zeit} Uhr</p>"; //echo date("j. F Y", $page->modified);
		echo "<p class='block gig_ort'><a href='{$heute->url}'>{$heute->Ort}</a></p></div>";
	}
	
	if (count($gigs)) {

	echo "<h2>Demnächst</h2>"; //gigs coming up
	}
			$out = '';

	foreach($gigs as $gig){
		

			$out .= "<div class='block-group gig_list'>";		
			$out .="<p class='block gig_date'>{$gig->Datum}, {$gig->Zeit} Uhr</p>"; //echo date("j. F Y", $page->modified);
			$out .="<p class='block gig_ort'><a href='{$gig->url}'>{$gig->Ort}</a></p></div>";
		}
	echo $out; 

	if (count($gigspast)) {

	echo "<h2>Bisher</h2>"; //past gigs
	}

			$out = '';

	foreach($gigspast as $gigpast){
		
			$out .= "<div class='block-group gig_list'>";		
			$out .="<p class='block gig_date'>{$gigpast->Datum}, {$gigpast->Zeit} Uhr</p>"; //echo date("j. F Y", $page->modified);
			$out .="<p class='block gig_ort'><a href='{$gigpast->url}'>{$gigpast->Ort}</a></p></div>";
		}
	echo $out; 
	
	
?>

While it works as wanted for the gigs coming up and past, it doesn't for todays gig.

On the frontend I get only the following output:

Heute

, Uhr

And when I change the ">" in the fourth line to ">=" it works also correctly and todays gig is also listed in the "Demnächst" part. So why does it not in the todays part?

Thanks for help

Looks like you're looping through $gigs and $gigspast, but are trying to output $heute directly. Though it's unusual to have several gigs on one day (I guess, don't know the band ) $heute will return a page collection. 

Try either foreach($heute as $gigheute) { ... } and better rename them vars, or outputting $heute->first()->Datum.

You forgot to foreach loop over the gigs of today. $heute is a PageArray, not a Page.

Also, you are looking for the events that will happen in this precise millisecond try using Datum=today instead of Datum=$t

Thank you all for these answers – most valuable ones, as always.

That solved the problem.

trey using Datum=today instead of Datum=$t

Thanks also for this one.
