PHP - Converting Timestamp To A "xx Hours Xx Minutes Ago" Format, My Take
Code: [Select]
function time_ago($timestamp) { //$months = array("Jan" => 31, "Feb" => 28, "Mar" => 31, "Apr" => 30, "May" => 31, "Jun" => 30, "Jul" => 31, "Aug" => 31, "Sept" => 30, "Oct" => 31, "Nov" => 30, "Dec" => 31); $curr_time = time(); $time_ago = $curr_time - $timestamp; if($time_ago < 60) // seconds { $ext = $time_ago . " seconds ago.."; } else { if($time_ago >= 60) // minutes { $time = floor($time_ago / 60); $seconds_remainder = $time_ago % 60; $ext = $time . " minutes " . $seconds_remainder . " seconds ago.."; if($time >= 60) // hours { $hours = floor($time / 60); $minutes = $time % 60; $ext = $hours . " hours " . $minutes . " minutes ago.."; if($hours >= 24) // days { $days = floor($hours / 24); $day_hours = $hours % 24; $ext = $days . " days " . $day_hours . " hours ago .."; } } } } return $ext; } It seems to work fine (was going to tackle Months but haven't done it yet), but anyway is there a better way to do this? I'm guessing there is as I wrote this up rather fast and I'm not that great with date math. Any suggestions are appreciated (besides maybe using ternaries which I'm working on atm).

I need the array to be numbered from 1 to how ever many fields that are needed in the form and have a mysql field name and the title of the field also in the array. 1, "mysql_field_name", "Title of form field" 2, "", "" and so on then the form will be shown based on the array. I have the following draft code which I am working with. any suggestions on how i may do this array ?

I am using the following code because I can't change the default timezone on my shared hosting plan:
$time = date("h:i A", strtotime("+19 hours"));
there are few issues with this. if I just use: date("h:i: A") the time prints as 7 hours earlier than my timezone, and currently it shows 1:09 AM and it appears in the database as "01:09:00". if I use the code above, the time prints out as "08:09 PM", but it is inserted into the database as "08:09:00". Shouldn't it read "20:09:00" instead? and why isn't the time being inserted into the database with the "PM" suffix on it like it appears in the printout? the "time" field in my database is set to type TIME. thanks. Edited October 14, 2019 by ajetrumpetHi, bit stuck on how to find and replace "<" and ">" with "<" and ">". I basically have a database record that outputs to screen and I need the code in the <code> tags to be rendered to the screen. I therefore need it to go through the whole array variable from the db and change the symbols just inside the code tags. Please be aware that the code tags might happen more than once here's an example below Code: [Select] <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1> </code> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1> </code> the desired output would be: <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1 </code> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <p>blah blah blah</p> <code> <h1>hello</h1 </code> help on this would be great Cheers Rob So i'm having some sort of an issue. what i'm trying to do is to get the name from an URL using GET that includes the "&" symbol. I have a link and that link looks like this: name_of_company_&_member. What im trying to do is to get that whole line using Get and echoing on a page. The problem is that the line cuts off after "company_" because it reads the & symbol as something different. Does anyone know how i can be able to retrieve the whole line including everything after the & symbol? i tried using the special character "%26" but i still get the same result. I want to have a couple of different formats from mktime(), which the value could be: 1292183335. I would like to have some of the formats like: Tuesday at 12:00am, Wednesday, January 12, 2011 at 12:00am Also taking different timezones in consideration. I'm not sure what to use for that. Hi guys I am a newbie with PHP and I have been trying to solve this problem for 3 days..

My webhosting is Blacknight.com , Im on Windows Vista, my internet is a dongle with O2 ireland Thanks for your help! I am creating a series of PHP scripts that allow for someone to append extra information to an Accident Claim Report. One of these scripts lists the files in a directory called the RCM directory. For the purpose of this, there is only one file in the list named "denman2.txt" and a hyperlink is attached to it so that the updated Accident Claim Report can be displayed. However, I would like it so that a style sheet could be applied to the "denman2.txt" text file, and I was wondering how it would be possible for the "denman2.txt" file to be opened in a format such as an HTML format so that a style sheet can be applied to it. Here is my Append Code: Code: [Select] <html> <head><title>Amend File</title></head> <?php if($_POST['append'] !=null) { $filename="C:/xampp/htdocs/rcm/denman2.txt"; $file=fopen($filename, "a"); $msg="Updated Information: " .$_POST['append'].

Hi all, Using a form with check boxes divided into different categories, I collect data selected by the user. I now want to combine each choice in each category with each choice in the other categories and list the combinations to the user. If the user chooses one or more options in each category, it is relatively easy to nest foreach loops, since the number of categories will always be the same. For example, if the form contains three categories of options, the code will be: Code: [Select] foreach ($form['cat_1'] as $k1 => $val1) { foreach ($form['cat_2'] as $k2 => $val2) { foreach ($form['cat_3'] as $k3 => $val3) { echo $val1.' _ '.$val2.' _ '.$val3.'<br/>'; } } } Things get complicated if the user does not select options within a given category. More generally, I want to be able to generate the list regardless of the number of categories in which the user selects options. Thank you in advance for your advice. |
