php不会将当前时间戳插入mysql表？

Question

Mysql table has a column DatePosted with the Datatype as TIMESTAMP .

I am trying to insert the current TIMESTAMP into the table using PHP. However the below code does not seem to work i get 0000-00-00 00:00:00 . Is the format wrong how do i get the current timestamp to be inserted in mysql

TIMESTAMP.php file

date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');

echo date("j of F Y, \a\\t g.i a", time());

mysqli_query($con,"INSERT INTO cfv_timestamp (DatePosted) VALUES ('".date("j F Y, \a\\t g.i a", time())."' )");

.

CREATE TABLE `cfv_timestamp (
  `DatePosted` timestamp NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=10 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

You should check mysql Timestamp format and change yours.

mysqli_query($con,"INSERT INTO cfv_timestamp (DatePosted) 
    VALUES ('".date("Y-m-d H:i:s", time())."' )");

Also you could set default value for Timestamp type CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
