I’m creating a blog website. When a user submits a new blog, I want the blog to be saved into my PHP database, along with the exact date and time that it was submitted.

For storing the date and time, I have a datetime field that is set to “not null”. I’ve tried leaving that field blank when I’m processing a blog submission:

insert into blogs values ‘$title’, ‘body’, ‘ ‘;
(notice the empty quotation marks)

but, when I do that, the field in the database is filled with zeros: 0000-00-00 00:00:00 . I’m using this field as my primary key, so I can’t have them all filled with 0’s!

How do I get the database to enter the current date and time? I’ve tried changing the field to a timestamp, but that didn’t help.

I’m using PHP 5.

We are debating using ICS files, mysql tables, a combination of both - just not sure what the most scalable method will be. In the system, calendars will be shared between users, and users will have the ability to export ICS files to import on their local computers.

I don’t have a website or a server or anything like that. I’m just trying to hone in on my web development skills, I’m having trouble installing MySQL on my XP SP2 machine. I want to use PHP, that is my main concern, I want to learn how to make forums/data entry stuff. Can I do this if I don’t have a server?

How do you install PHP and MySQL onto a computer without using things like WAMP? I am really desperate. I would REALLY appreciate you if you’d tell me how to do it step by step. Thanks.
I’m not trying to install LAMP. I’m trying to install PHP, Apache, phpmyadmin and MySQL individually without using software bundle.

I’m making an online version of a bank, for a game. Is there a way to have a program compound interest every day, or make a program that executes itself once per day, even when I’m not there to run it? I can use PHP and MySQL, and I also have Perl.
