note 52224 added to function.time

After trying for quite some time to manipulate PHP functions to add a timestamp to user submitted comments/posts that would be accurate with the CLIENT'S current time, I found the following workaround that still uses some PHP but solves a problem that many of you might be running in to: <form action="test.php" onsubmit="addTime()"> <input type="hidden" name="time" id="time"> <input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit"> </form> <script language="JavaScript"> function addTime() { var d = new Date(); document.getElementById('time').value=Math.floor(d.getTime()/1000); } </script> the PHP file pointed to in the action property of the form can then grab the user's time of submission from the $_POST (or just $time). If you're wondering about the d.getTime()/1000 it is because the getTime javascript method returns timestamp in milliseconds instead of seconds. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.time.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+52224 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52224&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52224&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52224&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52224&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+52224&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+52224&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
