    <p>After looking into it for a while I am struggling to use a hidden form field and a PHP MS SQL Query to add the date uploaded to the database when the data is submitted. Something similar to the MySQL NOW() function. Which I have tried and doesn't work. I also then tried the PHP date function. </p> <pre><code>&lt;input type="hidden" name="DateUploaded" value="&lt;?php date("d","m","y") ?&gt;"&gt; </code></pre> <p>With my upload looking like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $Title=$_POST['Title']; $Synopsis=$_POST['Synopsis']; $Article=$_POST['Article']; $DateUploaded=$_POST['DateUploaded']; $Deleted=$_POST['Deleted']; mssql_connect("*************", "*********", "*********") or die; mssql_select_db("DBName") or die; mssql_query("INSERT INTO DBTable (Title, Synopsis, Article, DateUploaded, Deleted) VALUES ('$Title','$Synopsis','$Article','$DateUploaded','$Deleted')"); Print "Your information has been successfully added to the database."; ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>Its just a simple test blog DB, however when I try this technique I get this error:</p> <pre><code>Warning: mssql_query() [function.mssql-query]: message: Conversion failed when converting character string to smalldatetime data type. (severity 16) in (File Path) on line 9 </code></pre> <p>I understand this is because im trying to put a string into a DB column set as smalldatetime. I was just wondering if there is a way around this that doesn't involve me having to change the data type in the DB? </p> <p>Any help would be appreciated. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
