'How to get the Current Date & Time Automatically to a Date Time Field

I have created a date time field I made today's date as the default value, Then I added it to a page layout and created a page, But the current Date Time is not picking up from the system.

I dont want to give the user to select a Date Time instead it should populated automatically

Is there anyway to achieve this without writing code in code behind files?

This is very similar to this question I think

My answer there gives a few options such as using the built in Created field, using a calendar template, a JavaScript hack and a custom field type.

Does [Today] work?

If you have language pack applied to SharePoint, then you must use localized "Today" string.
