CodeIgniter Date or DateTime - php

Question

I have one problem, which I can not resolve and have no idea where is mistake
One I create a tabel called posts and in codeigniter create a form Posts, after createing all post I want to display posts in index.php and I have table called
Date of departure, and date of return. One i create post date looking good but when I display in my index.php it's look like 0000-00-00 00:00:00
In begginig data type was Date, now i change to be DateTime but nothing happend, same problem
Maybe I make mistake in my JS script
Any comment ?
My script
<script>
$( function() {
$( "#datepicker" ).datepicker();
$( "#datepicker1" ).datepicker();
} );
</script>

Answer 1

When your field in MySQL is Date-time it aspects proper format before saving in database.
So convert string to date time format in php using.
date("Y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime($string));
Or you can do the same in Datepicker
$(function() {
$('#datepicker').datepicker({
dateFormat: 'yy-dd-mm',
onSelect: function(datetext){
var d = new Date(); // for now
var h = d.getHours();
h = (h < 10) ? ("0" + h) : h ;
var m = d.getMinutes();
m = (m < 10) ? ("0" + m) : m ;
var s = d.getSeconds();
s = (s < 10) ? ("0" + s) : s ;
datetext = datetext + " " + h + ":" + m + ":" + s;
$('#datepicker').val(datetext);
},
});
});
Fiddle for datepicker
Note if you want date only in MySQL field the omit hour min sec part of conversion
