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:
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
