This Function ‘TIME_STAMP’ will return the date or date time expression.
First i make a table in database named ‘dbase’ within the reference of mySql(php myAdmin).then i import all the mandatory java packages from the java library as required for program. I made a class named ‘MySqlCurrTimeStamp’ which extends ‘HttpServlet’.i use serviceMethod() which is been carry the request from doGet()Method for Output. Then after to declare the variable i loaded all the required drivers before for database accessing. Here i declare the variables like ‘connection’ this variable will create a link between database and java code. Then i call ‘resultSet’ this will be responsible for Getting value from the selected columns and the rows.
Then i declare ‘preparedStatement’ which will get to execute the selected query like executeQuery() as (Select CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() AS now). Here i use doGet()Method which will use to get output on the web browser.
While on the web browser to get output in tabular form i use ‘HTML’ code and tags for a manner way look.
