If where day=curdate() and 
time<=curtime()
has no values to go to the
Code:
or( day<curdate() and 
date_format( fltime,'%H:%i')<='24:00'))
But always get the values for
Code:
or( day<curdate() and 
date_format( fltime,'%H:%i')<='24:00'))

you need to stop and re-think

an IF expression can have only three possible values -- TRUE, FALSE, or UNKNOWN

obviously you have some serious data issues there if you are having these problems of "going to" some other time column
