[quote author=HuggieBear link=topic=110633.msg447653#msg447653 date=1160091253] OK, so like I said, do you want a current timestamp in the timestamp field? MySQL's [b]now()[/b] function will do that, see my code above. Huggie [/quote] cheers m8, works!!:-)

[quote author=HuggieBear link=topic=110633.msg447650#msg447650 date=1160090791] You need to convert the time in php to a format MySQL can recognise... $date = time(); as suggested will not give you a valid date format in MySQL.  Do you just want a current timestamp, if so, use this: [code] <?php $query = "INSERT INTO onlineform (name, Cname, email, query, Pnumber, date) VALUES ('$name','$Cname','$email','$Query', '$Pnumber', now())"; ?> [/code] Regards Huggie [/quote] i think you have hit the nail on the head:-)it displays on the page but does not go in to the datamase(MYSQL)

[quote author=mgallforever link=topic=110633.msg447643#msg447643 date=1160090496] [code] $query = "INSERT INTO onlineform (name,Cname,email,query,Pnumber,date) VALUES ('$name','$Cname','$email','$Query', '$Pnumber', '$date')"; [/code] try that [/quote] still the same m8

[quote author=mgallforever link=topic=110633.msg447638#msg447638 date=1160090242] is id primary key w/ auto_increment? [/quote] yeah m8

id int name vachar Cname varchar email varchar query varchar Pnumber varchar date timestamp

i tryed copying mgallforever code and still the same problem:-(

my inserts are the same order as my database m8

this is what i have changed it to and it still does'nt work         $Name=$_POST['name']; $Cname=$_POST['cname']; $Query=$_POST['Question']; $email=$_POST['email']; $Pnumber=$_POST['Pnumber']; $date = time(); $query = "INSERT INTO onlineform VALUES ('','$name','$Cname','$email','$Query', '$Pnumber', '$showdate')"; mysql_query($query); mysql_close();   echo "<h2>THank you for filling in this form, we will be in touch with you ASAP</h2>";   //echo $showdate;

[/quote] soz for not explaining it properly,but yeah when they vote it goes into the DB but i would like the number to update:-) Thx Charlie

thx for the reply,what i would like is for the votes to be added up in the database.atm it looks like this in the DB, Name,email,comment(memo),yvote1,novote 0<<submit 1 Name,email,comment(memo),yvote1,novote 0<<submit 2 i would like.. Name,email,comment(memo),yvote2,novote 0<<submit 2 the yvote adding atm its just telling me what there vote was. yvote=yes nvote=no Thx Charlie

lo all, i have put a vote yes/no on a guestbook that submits with the other info name,email,comment.it works ok,but could i use "update" or something like that so it adds in the database? this is what i have done... [!--coloro:#006600--][span style=\"color:#006600\"][!--/coloro--] $name = $_POST["txt_name"]; $len = strlen($name); if ($len > 0) { $email = $_POST["txt_email"]; $comment = $_POST["txt_comment"]; $date = time(); $yvote = $_POST["ybutton"]; $nvote = $_POST["nbutton"]; if ($ybutton == true) { $yvote++; } else { $nvote++; } $query = "INSERT INTO guestbook (autoID, name, email, comment, date_auto, yvote, nvote) VALUES (NULL, '$name', '$email', '$comment', '$date', '$yvote', '$nvote')";[!--colorc--][/span][!--/colorc--] Thx for any help:-) Charlie
