Dreamweaver /PHP Date question . . .

maco

Hi,

Hope somemone could help me, I have the following set ups;

My SQL file fields: User Id, Password and date

Dreamweaver form : User ID, Password, Date

My question is how do I default the Date field to todays date ? Is there any simple way of doing it ? either by PHP or Javascript . .

Note : still very new to these software.

Thanks a lot . . .

Have a look at http://ie2.php.net/date

Define $today in whatever format you prefer - then have the value of the date field like the following:
[php]<input type="text" value="<?php echo("$today"); ?>">[/php]

<form action="<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>" method="post" name="form1" onSubmit="MM_validateForm('email','','RisEmail','password','','R','datime','','R');return document.MM_returnValue">
<table align="center">
<tr valign="baseline">
<td width="110" align="right" nowrap>Email:</td>
<td width="212"><input type="text" name="email" value="" size="32"></td>
</tr>
<tr valign="baseline">
<td nowrap align="right">Password:</td>
<td><input type="text" name="password" value="" size="32"></td>
</tr>
<tr valign="baseline">
<td nowrap align="right"> </td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr valign="baseline">
