help with datetime

[megahard]

ok, how do i stick info into a datetime field, then get it back out agen in mysql?

i can do it with all other data, but i get 00-00-00 00:00 etc when i try to use datetime.

datetime sucks !


I use a simple strings field and use:

date("U");

To put in the number of seconds since.... (a long time ago :P)

and then you can make any datetime format you want with:

date("d/m/y @ H:i:s",$date);


$date is the string with the date("U") in it.
