Ok. I'm stumped.
I need to insert dates and times into a datetime field in a mysql database,
and get a sensible string back on retrieval.
Can anyone tell me whats wrong with this (other than no err checks.. I'm
getting there!)
Putting date in;-
$stamp=mktime($hour,$minute,0,$month,$day,$year);
$published=1;
DG_GetRecords ("INSERT INTO actions(actionname,actiondescription,
groupid,datetime,contactdetails,published) VALUES
('$name','$description',$groupid,$stamp,'$contactdetails',$published)");
And retrieving it.....
echo date("D M j G:i:s T Y",$row[4])
(Row 4 of course being from the above insert)..
I just get crazy dates unfortunately. Mostly in the seventies and with
improbable times of day..
Any clues where I'm screwin up?
