Hi driv,

You could use a Custom Code element to add a hidden input

<input type='hidden' name='timestamp' id='timestamp' value='<?php echo date("Y-m-d G:H:s"); ?>' />

but it might be more useful to add the timestamp after the form is submitted with a Custom Code action in the On Submit event

<?php
$form->data['timestamp'] = date("Y-m-d G:H:s");
?>
