ok, it works now, butfor year its just putting the letter two in the d
+atabase it suppost to be 02, and it prints 02 on the preview page 
 @months = qw(January Febuary March April May June July August Septemb
+er October November December);
 @hours = qw(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12);
 $time = ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = local
+time(time); 
 $year += 1900; 
 $year = sprintf("%02d", $year % 100);
 $new = $lastnumber + 1;

 if($hour > 12) { $AP = "PM"; }
 else { $AP = "AM"; }

 print "<p>Your news has been added</p><u><b>Preview</b></u><br>
        <p>$months[$mon] $mday $year <b>at</b> @hours[$hour]:$min $AP 
+<b>($user)</b></p><p><b>",param("title"),"</b><br>",param("des"),"</p
+>"; 
  
 $sth = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO news(username, month, day, hour, mi
+n, AP, title, description, year) VALUES ('$user', '$months[$mon]', '$
+mday', '$hours[$hour]', '$min', '$AP', ?, ?, '$year')");
 $sth->execute(param("title"), param("des")) or die $dbh->errstr;

When it prints the year in the database it just prints 2, when its suppost to be 02, on the preview page it displays 02??
