Luuk,

Thanks for your reply.

I have just tried adding this to the php file and it seems to work OK.

1. in the php file

$dt1 = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");

2. to create in MySQL

dt1 datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',

Is this not a good idea?

How would I get the server date/time into MySQL?

Cheers

Geoff
