How can you combine date and time input fields from a form in PHP to create a valid datetime format for MySQL?

When combining date and time input fields from a form in PHP to create a valid datetime format for MySQL, you can use the `date()` function to format the date and time strings accordingly. You can then concatenate the formatted date and time strings together with a space in between to create a valid datetime format for MySQL. 

$date = $_POST['date']; // Assuming 'date' is the name attribute of the date input field
$time = $_POST['time']; // Assuming 'time' is the name attribute of the time input field

$datetime = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', strtotime("$date $time"));
// $datetime now contains the combined date and time in MySQL datetime format

// Now you can use $datetime in your MySQL query to insert/update the datetime value
