Im trying to add a form so I can select a date range then resubmit the form so I can have rows only from a specific date range listed in the table, but I cant get it to work very well. Whats wrong in the code ? (php newbie alert) (UPDATED)

May be this will help. You haven't used df and dt parameters in SQL query:
$result = mysqli_query($con, "SELECT trallevask.regnr, trallevask.date,
trallevask.type, equipment.eqname AS vaske_type
FROM trallevask JOIN equipment ON equipment.eqid = trallevask.type
WHERE userid = ". $_COOKIE['userid'] . " AND trallevask.date
BETWEEN " . $_POST['df'] . " AND " . $_POST['dt']);
select * from table where date >= [start date] and date <= [end date] or (i'm not 100% sure if this works in mysql but it does in postgres!)
select * from table where date between [start date] and [end date]
First thing I see that HTML is formatted incorrectly:
Change line:
echo "<div class=\"datagrid\"><table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"5\" border=\"0\"><input type=\"submit\" /></form>";
to
echo "<input type=\"submit\" /></form><div class=\"datagrid\"><table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"5\" border=\"0\">";
Also in the very last line before ?> add </table></div> because you need to close DIV and TABLE tags.
I also can't see where $_POST["databases"]; is coming from, that might cause code to work incorrectly.
