 | Re: Formatting Dates The example at Rproffitt's link is on the right track. You'll want to reference [PHP's Date/Time Supported Date & Time Formats list](http://php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.date.php) to ensure MySQL's *CURDATE()* function returns a date formatted in a manner that works. Thankfully *CURDATE()*'s standard output is YYYY-MM-DD is an OK format to work with. $format …  |

| | Typically speaking, it is very bad practice to store serialized (or JSON) data in a database. This is big, red flag that you are not normalizing your database. Thus you're going to have dependencies all over the place, and it will make maintaining your data an absolute nightmare. Could you … |

| | I'm confused on why you're using MySQLi in your insertion script, yet the original *and long-since dropped, but now officially deprecated*, MySQL extension.
