Обсуждение: is this proper sql?

hi one of the developers here at work say this should workinsert into detail (det_id,det_mas_id,det_date,det_amt)
values
 
(0,0,now(),'0'), (1,1,now(),'1');



but when i try that in postgres like:insert into detail (det_id,det_mas_id,det_date,det_amt) values 
(0,0,datetime'now','0'), (1,1,datetime'now','1');

i get
ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near ","

I'm pretty sure that meets spec, but isn't currently supported by
postgres.  I believe if I'm reading the spec correctly, it's only
required for the highest level of complience.

Nope, not real. Although that type of syntax would be handy IMHO.

Multiple rows in INSERT ... VALUES are legal according to the SQL92
spec, but we don't support that (yet).

This is real SQL (except for the now() function) but it isn't supported in
PostgreSQL yet.
