How to create Views argument 'field_my_date_field >= today()'?

Posted by mattyoung on September 15, 2008 at 12:35am

I created a content type 'event' with an 'event_date' date field. I want to make a block to display "Up Coming Events" so this list should only display items with a future date. But I couldn't figure out how to create a Views argument to query 'event_date >= today()'. Is there anyway to do this? I think I need to use the PHP Code option for the "Default argument type"?

In Drupal 5 you added a filter for the date field and compared it to now (the help text had the details). I am guessing it is similiar for Drupal 6.
