Question

So i want to insert current time to mysql database, this is my code :

'regis_date'=>$this->input->post(date('Y-m-d H:i:s', now()))

But the result is this : 0000-00-00 00:00:00
What i want is like this (for example) : 2012-08-31 00:00:00
Thanks 😀

Answer 1

$this->input->post is for retrieving data posted through a form.

E.g.:

<input type="text" name="regis_date" />

Can be retrieved like this:

$this->input->post('regis_date');

Passing a date to $this->input->post doesn’t make any sense. What you want is:

'regis_date' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s', now())

Or as zerkms rightfully remarks:

'regis_date' => date('Y-m-d H:i:s')
