Re: Saving NOW() in model
I use the same way as Stephen Because what if MySQL is hosted on another server than Apache/PHP ? You'll save Apache/PHP time which can be different of MySQL time (no the same meridian for instance). Of course, it's a very specific case. And my servers are time synchronised together, but some time differences appeared once or twice a year.

It doesn't really matter whether or not you obtain the date from Apache/PHP or MySQL; as long as you are consistent.

Re: Saving NOW() in model
yes you're right! I care about that because we have 1 MySQL central server and several servers that request it.

Re: Saving NOW() in model
Ok, well for consistency's sake, do you know if cakePHP's automatic filling of 'created', 'updated', and 'modified' fields uses PHP's time or MYSQL's time?

Re: Saving NOW() in model
Most likely uses php's time (didn't check), but a good reason for this is to allow supporting of multiple databases (or even flat files) instead of db specific functions.

Re: Saving NOW() in model
I use date(DATE_ATOM) for date / timestamp fields, one could argue that there might be different time-zone between the web-server and the db server :-) If you really need the DB timestamp, better using '!- NOW()' as Stephen mentionned.

Re: Saving NOW() in model
Just get the PHP equivalent timestamp; it'll be easier and yield the
same result, unless your application takes minutes/hours/days to
insert or update a DB row. In which case, you have much bigger
problems ;-)
$aUserData = array(
'User' = array(
'id' = 4,
'last_login' = date('Y-m-d h:i:s')
)
);
Where I believe the MySQL datetime is in the format Year-Month-Day
Hour:Minute:Second; please forgive me if I'm wrong, it's late here.
