symfony 1.4: adding defailt value to a model

[vbnullzlol]

I'd like to add some default values to a model when I'm creating a new entry (like a timestamp)I'm sure there are more than one way of doing this, I'm curious what the different ways are, but mostly what the standard way of doing this is.Thanks---edit---solution:for the timestamp the default would be \[code\]default: CURRENT_TIMESTAMP \[/code\]
