 * I’m using WordPress as a classifieds website where people can post their ads.
   I would like to highlight the latest ads (posts). For example the latest ads (
   postings) in the past 24 hours or the latest in the past 7 days etc.
 * I know what i want to set in the css, but i dont know how the php code would 
   be. Can someone give an example on this?
 * I’m using the following code to highlight featured ads (sticky post):
 * <?php if(is_sticky($post_ID) == true) echo ‘<span class=”featured”></span>’; 
   else echo ”; ?>
 * Now i need something like that for the post of the last 7 days and the last 24
   hours.
 * Best Regards Rolf

       <?php  if(is_sticky($post_ID) == true) echo '<span class="featured"></span>';
       elseif( (date('U')-get_the_time('U')) <= 24*60*60) echo '<span class="one-day"></span>';
       elseif( (date('U')-get_the_time('U')) <= 24*60*60*7) echo '<span class="one-week"></span>';
       else echo ''; ?>
