webref.eu Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 The attachment shows the ReviewDate field in my MySQL database, which is a date and time field. The format is: 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Can someone give me the code to get the current date/time and insert it into the database in the format shown ... before I manage to Google it. Many thanks all.

webref.eu Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 Thanks for your help dezkit, your code is echoing the date and time for me which is great, however, I have to investigate which way round my database field is, it's probably: yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss but I have to confirm that. My MySQL server is running on a US host so I just need to make sure the month and day are the way round in the database that I expect. Many thanks.

webref.eu Posted August 10, 2008 Author Share Posted August 10, 2008 OK, thanks for your help Dezkit, I went for a slight change on the Month and Day as I needed the leading zeros: //Y Year in four digits //m Month 01 to 12 //d Day of the month 01 to 31 //H Hour 00 to 23 //i Minutes 00 to 59 //s Seconds 00 to 59 $DateAndTime=date("Y-m-d H:i:s"); echo $DateAndTime .
