zq29 Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 As default, the MySQL time datatype is formatted like this: HH:MM:SS, I'm trying to default it to just HH:MM - I have tried setting the fields character length to 5, and I have tried setting the default attribute to 00:00. Neither of these two attempts appear to have worked. Is this possible, or am I looking at altering the times with PHP after I have pulled it from the database?
