I put in the change from Timestamp to Datetime because in Mysql if you insert a NULL value into a Timestamp column then Mysql will automatically set it to the current date/time. The modification I made to the way pubtime works requires that we be able to save draft entries with a NULL pubtime. In Mysql the Timestamp and Datetime are the exact same thing except that a Datetime will never be set automatically. -- Allen > > Elias > > On 10/16/05, Dave Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Here's my theory.
