note 112703 added to function.strtotime

A handy way to create an array index based on a time stamp that is aligned with the day of the time stamp: <?php $daily_news = array(); $daily_news[strtotime(date("Y-m-d", time()))] = "Today's newz."; ?> Later on in the day, the user corrected a typo: <?php $daily_news[strtotime(date("Y-m-d", time()))] = "Today's news. Updated."; ?> So the first entry is updated rather than creating a new entry. And the index value may be used to extract the correct date. I found that trying to round down the time stamp number by dividing by the number of seconds in a day lost synchronization with the correct date. ---- Server IP: 49.212.134.217 Probable Submitter: 114.176.167.100 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/112703 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112703/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112703/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112703/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112703/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112703/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112703/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112703 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/112703 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
