Are you sure you want 30 days? An alternative would be

SELECT * FROM forms WHERE today >= DATE_SUB( CURDATE(), INTERVAL 1 month)

have tried it, both with days and month, but don't know why , it is giving a problem, this error it is showing up.

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'DAYS) LIMIT 0, 30' at line 1

The days condition in the 2nd parameter to date_sub should read DAY (without the plural "s").
