timestamp in my db

[bryanptcs]

I am wanting a timestamp to be placed into my db when the form is submitted, below is my php code for trying to do this:

[code]
$timestamp = date('Y d m h:i:s');
echo $timestamp;
$sql  = "insert into upload SET id='$id' , business='$business', address='$address', city='$city', contact='$contact', salesrep='$salesrep', phone='$phone', email='$email', name='$fileName', time='$timestamp' ";
[/code]

So what is your question?

Better to use time=NOW()..... and why are you setting the id?
