I\'m having problems getting the date inserted properly into my database.

$date = date(\'m/d/Y h:i:s\', time());

I use this format, and, it

Answer 1

set the type of column named dateposted as DATETIME and run the following query:

INSERT INTO table (`dateposted`) VALUES (CURRENT_TIMESTAMP)

Answer 2

$date = date('Y-m-d H:i:s'); with the type: 'datetime' worked very good for me as i wanted to print whole date and timestamp..

$date = date('Y-m-d H:i:s'); $stmtc->bindParam(2,$date);

Answer 3

I believe, you need to change your code little bit like follows alongside with your database filed type.

mysql_query("INSERT INTO table (`dateposted`) VALUES ($datetime)");

Hope, will work perfectly.
