Date/Time and Checkbox


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to figure out how to insert the current date and time into the database.
Scenario:
Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
1) user enter my site and fills up the forum
2) hits the submit button
3) Regardless of the user location I want the time to be stored in the database in PST.

Question:

Do I need to get an input from the user for time? or can I just use some server time etc?

Right now I'm asking them to manually insert the date and time in the textbox which is not that effective


Also I have a checkbox in my forums but I always get 0 in the value field when I check the database. I have it setup as (tinyint(1)) in the database using mysql. I think I am doing wrong.


Is there a way to require the user to check the button before they hit the "Submit" button?

Thank you in advance
