add time into form

[andydeans]

hi,

this is probably a simple solution but nothing is coming up in searches except date and time pickers.

i basically have a datetime column in mysql database.

i have an input field for my date part and i want to create a second input field in my form to allow the keying of the time.

the thing is i want the date and the time to insert into the same column, so not sure if i need to create a hidden field that puts the 2 together so when it inserts into the database as the one datetime?

not sure of this is correct of the code for this.

hope someone can help.

many thanks

$date = $_POST['date'];
$time = $_POST['time'];
$datetime = $date ." ". $time;

thanks.

here is the code i have:

$cal_rsRenewals->setRecordset("rsRenewals");
  $cal_rsRenewals->setField("ID", "TaskID");
  $cal_rsRenewals->setField("TITLE", "Title");
  $cal_rsRenewals->setField("DESCRIPTION", "NPW");
  $cal_rsRenewals->setField("START_DATE", "DueDate");
  $cal_rsRenewals->setField("END_DATE", "DueDate");

I want the START_DATE to be the DueDate and the TimeToCall column.

i tried adding in:

$cal_rsRenewals->setField("START_DATE", "DueDate", "TimeToCall");

but no joy.

the code you gave me, how could i impliement into my existing insert into table code:

// Add columns
$ins_tasks->setTable("tasks");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("TaskTitle", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "TaskTitle");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("TaskType", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "TaskType");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("Urgent", "CHECKBOX_YN_TYPE", "POST", "Urgent", "N");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("clients_ClientID", "NUMERIC_TYPE", "POST", "clients_ClientID");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("ProductAssociated", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "ProductAssociated");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("TaskDescription", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "TaskDescription");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("FurtherAction", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "FurtherAction");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("Documents_DocID", "NUMERIC_TYPE", "POST", "Documents_DocID");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("Tasks_UserID", "NUMERIC_TYPE", "POST", "Tasks_UserID");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("Task_AddedByUserID", "NUMERIC_TYPE", "POST", "Task_AddedByUserID");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("TaskDueDate", "DATE_TYPE", "POST", "TaskDueDate");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("TimeToCall", "DATE_TYPE", "POST", "TimeToCall");
$ins_tasks->addColumn("Completed", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "Completed");
$ins_tasks->setPrimaryKey("TaskID", "NUMERIC_TYPE");

thanks again
