Hello,
i want to search date greater than particular date but my date column datatype in text,
How could i do,i used following query

SELECT * from $table Where postedDate>='21-August-2013' and postedDate<='22-August-2013' ORDER BY modified_date DESC

this not working properly

MySQL has a STR_TO_DATE function, which you can use to convert the string to an actual date.

Thanks,
I tried but it returns empty result

SELECT * from $table Where str_to_date(postedDate,'%e-%M-%Y')>='21-August-2013' and postedDate<='22-August-2013'
