I haved removed the quotes and when it is by itself it works just fine
$date = date("Y-m-d H:i");
echo "$date";
2004-05-15 16:20
but I put it in a a form it only displays the date and not the time
Time:<INPUT type="text" name="Date_and_Time" value=<? echo $date; ?>
size="50"><br>
still only displays
2004-05-15
