Automatic content expiry

Hi All,

I have a job coming up which involves me creating a vacancy system for our website.

I (think) I'll only need one table:

ID (PK)
JobTitle
JobLocation
Salary
Hours
JobDescription
ValidFrom (Date/Time)
ValidTo (Date/Time)

I'll display this data using a C#.Net repeater but I was wondering how I can automatically strip the page of the jobs that have gone past their expiry date? Is is straightforward to achieve?

Thanks in advance,
Brett

Add a where condition to your select statement to bring only the valid Jobs e.g.:

select * from Jobs where getDate() < ValidTo

Hope this was helpful

Thanks Eyad,

I didn't think it would be that simple!
