    <p>I am trying to time stamp posts that people make on my simple blog website. I just want the timestamp to be at the bottom of their posts. I have it working now, however once I make a new posts, all the time stamps for recent posts update to the new posts timestamp. Not sure how to go about fixing this tho, I tried different php time stamps, etc but still no go. Thanks in advance for helping me!</p> <p>Here is my PHP</p> <pre><code> &lt;!DOCTYPE HTML&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="post.css" /&gt; &lt;meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" /&gt; &lt;title&gt;Daily Dorm News&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Your Daily Dorm News Post! &lt;/h1&gt; &lt;div id="container"&gt; &lt;?php if ( isset($_GET['name']) and preg_match("/^[A-Za-z0-9]+$/", $_GET['name']) ) { echo $_GET['name']; } else { echo "You entered an invalid name!\n"; } ?&gt;&lt;br&gt; Your email address is: &lt;?php if ( isset($_GET['email']) and preg_match("/.+@.+\..+/i", $_GET['email']) ) { echo $_GET['email']; } else { echo "You didn't enter a proper email address!\n"; } ?&gt;&lt;br&gt; You Posted : &lt;?php if ( isset($_GET['message']) and preg_match("/^[A-Za-z0-9]+$/", $_GET['message']) ) { echo $_GET['message']; } else { echo "The message is not valid!

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.
