PHP - Php 'time()' Outputs As Jannuary 1 1970

Hi guys,

I have a simple query he

      $sql="SELECT user_id FROM $tbl_name WHERE email='$loginuseremail' AND password='$loginpassword'";
      $result=mysql_query($sql);
      $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
      
//START SESSION   
      session_start();
         $_SESSION['username']=$loginuseremail;
         $_SESSION['user_id']=$row;
   
         echo $_SESSION['user_id'];   

It should obviously output an ID number but instead I just get the word 'Array'. If I remove the  mysql_fetch_assoc() I just get 'Resource ID #4'.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

I have a piece of code that outputs json as you can see from the example below it add \ / in front of urls & for ' it turns it into ' is there something i can do to correct this?

Code: [Select]
if (mysqli_num_rows($r) > 0) { // Available.
 
    while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($r, MYSQLI_ASSOC)) {
   
$results[] = array(
      'blog_id' => ($row['ID']),
          'post_date' => ($row['pd']),
'post_title' => ($row['post_title']),
'article_img' => ('http://www.socialnewsoffice.com/uploads/'.$row['article_img']),
'post_content' => ($row['post_content']),
'tags' => ($row['tags']),
'views' => ($row['views']),
'categorie_id' => ($row['categorie_id']),
'post_url' => ($row['post_url']));
    }
echo $json = Pretty_JSON(json_encode($results));

it outputs

Code: [Select]

I am just trying to use Associate array in another php file through session. file1.php

<?php
$age = array();
$_SESSION["age"] = array("Peter"=>"35", "Ben"=>"37", "Joe"=>"43");
foreach($_SESSION["age"] as $x => $x_value) {
echo "Key=" . $x . ", Value=" . $x_value;
echo "<br>\n";
}
?> OUTPUT: Key=Peter, Value=35
Key=Ben, Value=37
Key=Joe, Value=43 file2.php <?php
session_start();
foreach( $_SESSION["age"] as $x => $x_value) {
echo "Key=" . $x . ", Value=" . $x_value;
echo "<br>\n";
}
?> OUTPUT: PHP Notice: Undefined index: age in session.php on line 3 PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in session.php on line 3   Why am I getting this error?   Above is just example I tried to demonstrate for asking question for other issue, unfortunately I got new error in this example. But actual issue was, I was trying to plot graph  using library which requires only Associate array, where the data is formed in file1.php. But I get only last index value displayed in file2.php even in graph or in echo. I don't understand why other values are not displayed in file2.php Please point me what is going wrong, Thanks.

Sorry if this is a silly question lol.

I want to know if there is an online tool I can use to check and see what PHP code will ouput server side.

For example:

<?php
$tomorrow  = mktime(0, 0, 0, date("m")  , date("d")+1, date("Y")); ?>

Hi,

I've inherited a website with a problem! Basically the site runs pommo mailing list, which has worked fine for years. Recently though the website domain name changed. Since then - or at least at a similar time - pommo has just stopped working completely. It does nothing but outputs blank pages.

I've never done any php development so I've no idea where to start in terms of debugging this. I've checked that the files etc all exist on the server: they do. I've uploaded a test html page which works. I've uploaded a test php page containing: <?php phpinfo( ); ?> and it works. But when I visit any  page in the pommo application, the browser just renders a totally empty white page - no source HTML at all, just nothing!

Can anyone suggest how to debug this? Even an error message would be somewhere to start.

Thanks all!

PHP date and time function is not showing correct time on my local system

I have the following php code

date_default_timezone_set("Africa/Lagos");

$date = date('d-m-y h:i:s');

echo "Server Time ".$date ."<br>";

echo "The time is " . date("h:i:sa")."<br>";

$current_datetime = date("Y-m-d") . ' ' . date("H:i:s", STRTOTIME(date('h:i:sa')));

echo "Current time1: ".$current_datetime . "<br>";

 

Output

Server Time 21-05-21 09:55:39
The time is 09:55:39am
Current time1: 2021-05-21 09:55:39

 

Expected Output

Server Time 21-05-21 10:55:39
The time is 10:55:39am
Current time1: 2021-05-21 10:55:3

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Basically I have recently been playing around with parsing a csv file. What I am looking to do at this point is simply take the date/timestamp (part of the csv file), which is in the following format:DD/MM HH:MM:SS.100th/s
For the sake of argument, lets say I have this in an array string called $csv[0] and the file has several lines that span the course of a couple hours. I wouldn't mind having to use explode() to breakup/remove the date or 100th/s IF that would make things a lot simpler.

So where would I start in trying to achieve this?. The result I am looking for will simply return "X Seconds". Storing this in a string variable would be a bonus, as I plan to use this to divide a separate piece of information.

Any examples or ideas would be great. Thank you.

ps:
Here is an example time from the csv file itself:
Code: [Select]
11/19 22:23:18.143

I am trying to simulate an ad expiration and carry out an action if the ad is expired. And I cannot get the if/else to work properly... I've tried many variations and I cannot see what I am doing wrong here. Any tips please 3 hours and counting of no solution!

$ad_start = time()-14 . "<br />"; // 14 days from today in the past (negative)
echo $ad_start;

$current_time = time() . "<br />"; // current epoch time
echo $current_time;

$days_past = $ad_start - $current_time; // days past

echo "<br />$days_past days have past since the ad started!<br />";

if($days_past <= 14)
{
echo "<br />Ad is less than 14 days.  Not expired.";
}
else
{
echo "<br />Ad is over 14 days. Expired.";
}

I am having a problem with PHP displaying the correct date and time. It updates as it should, but is fast by 4min and is always displaying a date in 2004. I ran a basic php script to make sure the application im using itself is not wrong. go to lunenburgledger.com/time.php

Anybody had any ideas on where to check? The system time on the Windows Server 2003 is correct. The only thing I can think of is that it was converted to a virtual machine on vmware esxi, but the system time stayed right. Any ideas?

Thanks!

What are the differences and implications of UTC time and Zulu time?
  

<?php

$arr = getArr('2020-08-05');  
$arr_z = getArr('2020-08-05T00:00:00Z');  

print_r($arr);
print_r($arr_z);

echo('equal timestamps: '.($arr['timestamp'] === $arr['timestamp']?'true':'false'));

PHP 5.2.6

We rent PHP server space on a server in California. Several of my pages generated by PHP show the current date and time, so when the page is printed, the user knows when the data was printed. Our users could be anywhere in the US, I am in Michigan. How do I convert the server time (PDT) into local time, regardless of where the user is?

Thanks.

Hello,

I tried to implement some PHP code to enable a web page to show "Dinner" specials versus "Lunch" specials based on the time.

The business is located in the Eastern Time Zone, so I only need to routine to work based on Eastern Time (New York).

What I am noticing is that the server is processing the lines of code so fast that the command to establish the correct time for the remaining code is not always being acknowledged.

This line of code appears to be processing too fast for the remaining lines of code:
date_default_timezone_set ( "America/New_York" );

Is there some additional code I can put in place to make sure the correct time is always ascertained?

I need the $hourmin variable to always return a combination of hour + minute based on 24-hour time and Eastern Time zone.

My code is as follows:


 <?php
   $name8 = file_get_contents("test/special8name.txt");
date_default_timezone_set ( "America/New_York" );
$gethour = date("H");
$getminutes = $gettimedate["minutes"];
$gettimedate = date();
$hourmin = $gethour . $getminutes;
$currentday = date("l", time());
$currentdate = date("M j, Y");
if ($hourmin < 1500 && $currentday <> "Saturday" && $currentday <> "Sunday") {
   echo "<span class=\"namesred\">$name8 </span>";
}
  else if ( $hourmin > 1500 && $hourmin < 2300 && $currentday <> "Saturday" && $currentday <> "Sunday") {
   echo "<span class=\"namesblue\">$name8 </span>";
  }
  else if ( $currentday == "Saturday" or $currentday == "Sunday") {
   echo "<span class=\"namesblue\">$name8 </span>";
  }
?>

OK So I've got a datepicker that sends a date in d/m/y format. My DB stores the data in Unix Timestamp Which I can convert the date to with strtotime however this does the exact date & time.

All I want is the actual day. I've spent hours trying to convert this with just the day with mixed results...

Thanks.

I am making a time clock, and I was wondering what is the best way to calculate the number of hours an employee worked?

I have a table called "statuses" it holds names of punch types:
- id = the auto_inc
- status = "in/out/break/lunch" text statuses
- paid = whether or not the punch is paid or not (true/false)

I have another table called "logging" This table holds the information about the punch type:
- id = the auto_inc
- owner = the member id
- ip = members ip
- inout = the punch type from the statuses table
- location = the city/state of where the punch took place
- date = the time the member punched

Maybe I am over thinking this, but what is the best way to calculate the hours a person has worked?

Right now I am getting all the punches for for a particular member between a date range. then loop through the data to display it and passing it to a method in a class called Calc. I want to then add the times from punch in to punch out, then the next punch in to punch out.

Any suggestions?
