should be simple as pie, of course, but i can't find a straightforward syntax example in the documentation. i'm trying to change the PHP date format to mysql's. my code: $today = date("YYYYMMDD"); $sql = "INSERT into table (date) values ('$today')"; and so on... is filling the date field with zeros, instead of 2002-02-28
