Question

I want to add a row to a db with a time ‘x’ amount into the future (different for each row). I have looked through every tutorial/help/whatever I could find via google but nothing seems to help.

From what I can tell, the best way is to do it with MySQL.

SELECT ADDTIME(now(), '00:10:00')

But how do I actually make that work with this:

$new_row = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO table (field1, field2, time) VALUES(?, ?,?)");

$new_row->execute(array($field1, $field2, $timeintenminutes)) or dieWithDBError($new_row);

Answer 1

Untested, but have you tried:

$new_row = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO table (field1, field2, time) VALUES(?, ?, ADDTIME(NOW(), '00:10:00'))");
$new_row->execute(array($field1, $field2)) or dieWithDBError($new_row);
