Description:
------------
The pg_insert and pg_update functions will not accept now() as a valid value for timestamp fields.

Reproduce code:
---------------
// Assumes the following table exists:
/*
  CREATE TABLE timestamp_test
  (
    id serial NOT NULL, 
    mytime timestamp NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT timestamp_test_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id)
   )
   WITHOUT OIDS;
*/


$dbConn = pg_connect();

$values = array('mytime' => 'now()');
pg_insert($dbConn, 'timestamp_test', $values);

$ids = array('id' => 1);
$fields = array('mytime' => 'now()');
pg_update($dbConn, 'timestamp_test', $fields, $ids);

Expected result:
----------------
Both the insert and the update should succeed.

Actual result:
--------------

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

The error comes from PostgreSQL, PHP simply relays it to you.

The error comes from php_pgsql_convert(), see ext/pgsql/pgsql.c:4975.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
