title: jUI TimePicker and MySQL DATETIME column
body: <p>I'm using the Martin Milesich TimePicker, which is basically the jUI datepicker with hour/minute sliders attached to it.</p>
  
  <p>I have a couple of queries regarding this:</p>
  
  <p>1) I'm storing the data in a database field of type DATETIME - as you're probably aware the default format for this field is <strong>2010-07-19 14:00:00</strong>. In my form field however I am displaying the date/time in a more friendly way, i.e. <strong>19/07/2010 14:00</strong> (uk format). So how can I convert my friendly format into the MySQL format after posting the form?</p>
  
  <p>2) Optionally, is it possible for the time portion to be inputted in to its own field? I looked in the timepicker.js file and noticed a setting 'altTimeField' - which it says is a 'Selector for an alternate field to store time into' but so far I have not been able to get this to work.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
