Hi Pambos,
you can use the function date in this manner:

date("YmdGis");

because the type TIMESTAMP has the following format:

YYYYMMDDHHMMSS, where:
YYYY=year like 2004
MM=month like 04
DD=day like 24
HH=hour like 10
MM=minutes like 24
SS=seconds like 33

in this case date("YmdGis"); has the output 20040424102433 that is the right
format for TIMESTAMP.
