Question

date('H-m-s') gives something like this when I echo variable > 08-07-16

I have table in mysql and the field type is set to TIME.

And when I transfer this data there, in mysql table I see this > 00:00:08

I repeat it several times but I see only this > 00:00:08

What’s the problem with mysql ???

Answer 1

MySQL’s TIME type expects the time in the format HH:MM:SS. Generate your date in PHP as:

date("H:i:s");

Or as eykanal points out, use the DATETIME type instead.
