RE: [PHP-DB] Converting Date Form Fields

Ah, the join function...I see implode() will also perform the same task. That was what I needed to do. Thanks!

Hope it helps ;) Matt -----Original Message----- From: Zach Curtis [mailto:zach@populus.com] Sent: 16 November 2001 16:02 To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] Converting Date Form Fields I have two HTML form fields birthMonth (e.g., Jan=1, Feb=2...) and birthYear (e.g., 2001=2001, 1999=1999...). How can take these two individual form fields, then add in a default value of "1" for the birthDay (this is not asked in the form), and put this data into a MySQL table field birthDate with field type DATE (YYYY-MM-DD)? The part I do not know how to accomplish is taking these form fields and then combining them into a date field/format. Thank you.
