Hello,
I am having an issue with creating a database record and saving dates into the record. I have a form the user
enter's dates. That form calls the 'updateArticle.php' file and to update or create a new recod. Currently I'm
only working on the create record side of the program right now. All of the field's are passed from the form to
the PHP program throught the $_POST method. After that I assign the $_Post variable to a standard PHP variable,
then create the query and execute it on the database. When I look at the new record in the database, all dates are
set to '0000-00-00'. I've attempted to use the Date() function and change the format of the dates to 'Y-m-d',
however that does not work either. I've included the code below, if there is anything unclear or any help anyone
can provide, please feel free to ask or email me. I've been pulling my hair out tring to figure out where I've
screwed this up. Thanks!!!
FYI, $_POST['subDate'], $_POST['pubDate'] all echo out to 05-25-2012. The third date (remDate) is left blank on
purpose. The last echo result in the below code is:
INSERT INTO `ARTICLES`(`id`, `title`, `sub_date`, `pub_date`, `rem_date`, `body`, `imgname`) VALUES (NULL,'','05-
25-2012','05-25-2012','','',NULL)
1
============CODE==============
$id = sanitizeString($_POST['id']);
$title = sanitizeString($_POST['title']);
$subDate = sanitizeString($_POST['subDate']);
$pubDate = sanitizeString($_POST['pubDate']);
$remDate = sanitizeString($_POST['remDate']);
$body = sanitizeString($_POST['body']);
$imgFileName = sanitizeString($_POST['imgFileName']);
$query = "INSERT INTO `ARTICLES`(`id`, `title`, `sub_date`, `pub_date`, `rem_date`, `body`, `imgname`)
VALUES (NULL,'$title','$subDate','$pubDate','$remDate','$body',NULL)";
$results = mysql_query($query);
echo $query."<br />".$results;
remove the @@ and replace with OO to get my email address.
Thanks!!!

Echo the actual query you're sending to MySQL, then fix it.
And remember to check how MySQL requires dates to be entered (this is
the wrong newsgroup for that).

Your dates need to be in yyyy-mm-dd format

Since when do plurals have an apostrophe?

"Does not work" is as useful as a description of what the problem is
as a chocolate teapot is to making tea. I would say that you most
likely didn't use it correctly, but since you haven't shown us what
you tried, we have no way to know.

You've included code that shows you trying to enter a non-ISO format
date into what we must assume is a date field and telling us that it
doesn't work. Not much help...
