PHP - Auction Timer
I am looking for a tutorial or advice wherein I can create a timer for my auction items. You can see those timers on the site like quibids.com The concept is like this.
I post and auction and set an end time for the auction. When the auction is live, The timer will start and will show how many hours and seconds are remaining. If any one has a class or some link to a tutorial site, that'll be a great help. Thanks a lot. Similar TutorialsGood day all , I am in the processes of creating a add buyer page for an auction site.

How will I do that? tnx everyone. How am i able to setup a countdown timer? I use the time(); function and want to compare that time with another time that is 8 hours ahead to form a countdown timer, how am i able to do this using php? Hello. Well i'm trying to make a timer to execute some code. Basically I want 3 minutes, every 3 minutes a piece of code is activated, then another 3 minutes later it does so again. But I have tried different ways of doing this, I tried with cookies and found out the person with the cookie is the only one that can refresh the page to activate the code. Same with sessions. And all the others are usually interrupted and start the timer again when the page reset. So yeah, I don't want it to be interrupted by refreshing. So any help please? I also tried with timestamps, this has proven to be the best way but I can never get it working 100% Hey Guy's
I need a quick fix to solve an urgent problem..
I used to do some coding years ago but the old grey matter is not so responsive these days and I have been up all night trying to resolve a problem.
I have built a website for my daughters and created a simple web form but I have come unstuck. All those skills I once took for granted are gone.
So here's where I am at. I've created an input form_mail.html, a contact.php and a reply.html page uploaded them to the Server and hit an error when I tried to send a message. The problem it seems is with the PHP.ini File.
In short I don't have one Duh! Yes I know I should go back and study and that much I intend to do I am currently installing xxampp, MySQL and php on my new laptop.
But in the meantime I need your help urgently..
What code do I need in the php.ini file to make the Form Mail work?
Is there somewhere on the web where I can see a simple code, I am just too tired to wade through heavy docs right now.
Your help would be much appreciated at this time.
Sincerely
Tam
Here's the code for the countdown timer. It works. At the end of the countdown, it's suppose to show the message "EXPIRED". But that message only shows once I reload the page. The countdown itself stops at 00:00:01. Is there a way to automatically show the message after that, instead of reloading the page to show it? <style> div#counter{ margin: 100px auto; width: 305px; padding:20px; border:1px solid #000000; } div#counter span{ background-color: #00CAF6; padding:5px; margin:1px; font-size:30px; } </style> <?php $target_date = '2019-01-12 05:40:00'; $timeLeft = (strtotime($target_date) - time()) * 1000; ?> <script src="javascripts/timer.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function(){ var timeLeft = <?php echo $timeLeft ; ?>; var timer = new Timer($('#counter'), timeLeft); if (timeLeft <= 0) { $('#counter').text('EXPIRED'); } }); </script> <div id="counter"> <span class="hour">00</span> <span class="min">00</span> <span class="sec">00</span> </div> Edited January 11, 2019 by imgrooot I don't know if this can be done in PHP, but what I'm wanting to do is calculate the amount of time a user has spent in a session. I am planning on making a script that allows users to race through questions and the person who does it the fastest is the winner. Could someone help me out with this? Thanks Can anyone help me with a 60 second timer for my website. I want to display the following text to my customers at the top of the page: "You will be automatically redirected to homepage in [timer]" In my header I have the following code: <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="61;url=home.php"> Hi, I'm new to the forum, I have a slight issue with my script. Basically, I need to figure out a script that will allow me to do the following: - The user defines x amount of ours to count down (ie. 16 hours, 8 hours, 4 hours) - The script then starts the count down of the x hours - I need the script to count between 08:00 - 20:00 after 20:00 it needs to stop, then start again at 08:00 - The script also need to stop throughout the weekend (ie counts until 20:00 on friday, stops saturday & sunday, then starts 08:00 on monday) Can this be done? If so, any pointers or help? Many thanks, Lewis. Can anyone help me to make a countdown timer in php? so basically i've made a quiz.. but i want it to have a time of 1 hour 30 mins.. but i dont have any idea of how to make a timer I am currently in the process of creating an online time based game. One of the big things is that users get gold every half an hour :00 & :30. What I am trying to do is offer a physical clock so that users can see how much time is left before they more more gold. I have been trying to do this using PHP. All I have currently is the time, but would like something like "$minutes until more gold". This is currently what I have now: (added 1 hour for EST.) <?php echo date("h:i A",time()+60*60); ?> Hi all, I would like to create a timer showing a countdown from 0% to 100% (representing "power") ending at noon GMT on Sunday 4th September. The countdown started a few weeks ago, hence as of 1pm GMT on Tuesday 1st March, the countdown should be at 15% The "power" increases by 5% every 11 days so by my calculations, the percentage in our countdown should increase by 0.01% every 1900.8 seconds. So, with this theory, how would I go about coding it? I guess since I use GMT, I need to take a timestamp in GMT first, then calculate the difference between this and Sunday 4th September at 12.00pm. I am not sure though which format of time/date is best to do the calculation. Would it be better to use Unix time? Any help, suggestions and/or code is greatly appreciated. Skulty Hi im trying to Make a Timer count down in this code function getTime($host, $user, $pass, $db, $hours, $ip, $serverId) { $c = @mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass); if(mysql_select_db($db, $c)) { $dateQ = mysql_query('SELECT MAX(date) AS lastVoteDate FROM `'. $db .'`.`votes` WHERE ip="'. $ip .'"') or die(mysql_error()); $getDate = mysql_fetch_assoc($dateQ); $diffrence = time() - strtotime($getDate['lastVoteDate']); $hours = number_format(($diffrence / 60 / 60)); $minutes = number_format(($hours / 60)); if(!$hours < 1){ return ("". $hours .""); } else { return ("0"); } } else { return array(1, "Error connecting to DB."); } } Is it possible to set a certain session to time out after say 2 minutes. I want to lock a person from seeing a page for 2 minutes then destroy the session yet keep the primary session and still keep dpoing what they were doing? Just curious. Thanks, Hi Guys! Hoping someone can help me with this. I need to produce a timer which I can embed on a website. It needs to count down the remaining hours until 7pm during the weekdays, then at the weekends count down until 7pm on Monday. Any ideas or points in the right direction would be greatly appreciated! I'm a bit of a newbie! |
