This ensures that your date/time is consistent withing that block of code. 2) If there is no particular reason why you are storing the date and the time separately why not just use a DATETIME field? Then you can just use the builtin db function NOW(). Or, if that datetime never changes once assigned, you could even use a TIMESTAMP field. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ New Year Resolution: Ignore top posted posts
