Actually i forgot to mention that my mysql date field its od type 'datetime' and not epoch or timestamp because as you said inddeed iam making other things as well with time except of comparing.
I dont know wthough it the filed has to be datetime or timestamp, perhpas ouc an give an idea.
Now that it is of a datetime type how would i check of the 5 mins delay?
