[SOLVED] Using the TIMESTAMP field type

Recommended Posts

I have a table like so:

 

CREATE TABLE `jscm_login_attempts` (
  `user_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `user_attempts` tinyint(2) NOT NULL,
  `user_locked_out` tinyint(1) NOT NULL,
  `user_locked_out_till` timestamp NOT NULL default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`user_id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

 

When a user tries to login, a row will be inserted with the user's id, attempts made, false, and the current timestamp. If and when the "user_attempts" field reaches a preset number (say 3), "user_locked_out" will be set to true. That I know how to do but what I want to do is change the timestamp so its X number of minutes in the future (say 15). How would I do that?
