Anyone know what is the best practices to store a person date of birth ? How should we design our detail object, JSP and database in such way we don't have a messy approached to populate the day, month and year in Action class to be able to display in JSP during UPDATE process.
Currently, I have a JSP with combo box for day, month and year. Using mySQL db, I set the dateOfBirth column to TIMESTAMP. (Some told me to use DATE for this column). Obviously TIMESTAMP have the limitation since date of birth before Jan 1 1970 will be stored as 00000000000. Know any workaround to this one ? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
