Paul,
>(Unix timestamps are ten digits, aren't they?). No, they're fourteen digits: CCYYMMDDhhmmss
I think we might be talking about different things. A UNIX time stamp is ten digits long: http://www.unixtimestamp.com/ How MySQL stores it's own TIMESTAMP column is the format you describe.
I want to know if there's any problem storing a UNIX timestamp purely as an integer in my MySQL database.
I think not, as long as you don't treat it like a TIMESTAMP column.
