Pre-populating current date/time with URL

I have this:

PageReference retPage = new PageReference('/' + changeID + '/e?00Na000000BA4Ip=Rejected&00Na000000BA4IU=True&00Na000000BA4IW=UserInfo.getName()&00Na000000BA4IV=');

 This needs to equal the current date and time.  How do I accomplish that?

00Na000000BA4IV=

How about formating the result as string and  calling html escape method on the result 

 

DateTime.now().format().escapeHtml4();

 

There are other escape methods you could try if it does not work - escapeEcmaScript, check the docs

You could try using System.now() or DateTime.noe(). Both with generate the current datetime. Are you looking for something more detailed?

Hi Ryan

 

That's what I was trying to use and both when they try to populate error and says invalid date and time and you see System.now() in the box.  I've tried {} around it, ' ' and " " around it.  All act the same.

Doesn't this work:

 

PageReference retPage = new PageReference('/' + changeID + '/e?00Na000000BA4Ip=Rejected&00Na000000BA4IU=True&00Na000000BA4IV='+datetime.now());
