RE: [PHP] Need help with formatting time

Once again, a reminder of the smartest way to code php: 1) think for 2 seconds 2) check out php.net for documentation on functions 3) use a function (or 2) already written instead of spending time yourself... jack -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Ostmo [mailto:tech@appideas.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 17, 2001 5:11 PM To: Jack Dempsey Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] Need help with formatting time Jack Dempsey pressed the little lettered thingies in this order... > $hours = $time / 60; > $minutes = $time % 60; > > if($hours >= 12){ > $meridian = 'pm'; > $hours -= 12; > } > else{$meridian = 'am';} > if($hours == 0){$hour = '12';} > > echo "$hours:$minutes$meridian"; > > try something like that...haven't tested it, but it should be close... > That's a lot of code! Use date() and mktime() and PHP will do all of this for you in one line. See my previous post on the subject. I sent *tested* code that will fit on a single line and will do exactly what the above is doing.
