I suspect this question is more appropriate to the date module than the views module.

I'm trying to build a view that generates a table of content where the day and month is the same as the current day and month (e.g. similar to a "what happened this day in History" view).

I assume I need to set a relative filter with operator "is equal to"; however, I'm at a loss as to the relative input. I've looked through the PHP documentation without success.

I've tried to play with granularity, but year is the starting point for granularity and I need to exclude it from the filter.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
G

I'm attempting something similar -- a This Day in History block. I worked around the Date module's year requirement by using the Views PHP module to set up a PHP filter that extracts the month and day from the date field and compares it with today's month and day. It's not the most elegant solution, but it works.
