PHP - Time Script
Hi,
Im trying to create a simple script that will change the style sheet depending on the time of day. I have the following but it doesn't seem to be working. The stylesheets work fine when not used in the code (if i just add it to the head section) Appreciate any help Code: [Select] <? // timezone date_default_timezone_set('GMT'); // check time $time = date("His"); // 6AM to 6PM $day_start = '060000'; $day_end = '180000'; // 6PM to 6AM $night_start = '180001'; $night_end = '055959'; // time of day if (($time >= $day_start) && ($time <= $day_end)) { // it is daytime // echo 'day'; echo '<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" type="text/css" href="css/wc_parallax_day.css" />'; } if (($time >= $night_start) && ($time <= $night_end)) { // it is nighttime // echo 'night'; echo '<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" type="text/css" href="css/wc_parallax_day.css" />'; } ?> Similar Tutorialshello guys. i sitting here at my pc , have used alot days on google and forums. but i just cant seem to find what i am looking for so i hope that anyone here got a min to tell me what to do okai soo what i am looking for is a php / mysql script that can countdown for a user , when its finish add a number ( to usertabel[2]. and the problem is it need to do it also if the user closes the browser. i am total lost , have no ide to fix / wihte it Sorry for my spelling i am danish Hi all, I am trying to make a emailscript with PEAR to send quite some people a personalized messaged. But i thought this could very well cause the script to time out. Now i read http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php, but i thought does maybe someone knows a way to prevent a time out instead of setting the time-limit to a larger amount. Some terms i saw floating around we ob_start, flush, sleep and a few others but i really never worked with these. If someone could point me in the right direction of thinking or maybe knows a tutorial or guide i really would love to hear it. Thank you! I have the following 2 scripts. One adds to the database and the other deletes a record from the database. Code: [Select] <form action="deletebidder.php" method="post"> <table> <tr> <td><font face ="calibri" size="4"> Add Bidder:</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="text" name="biddersId" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="hidden" name="addedbidder" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="Submit" value="Add"></td> </tr> </table> Second from: Code: [Select] <form name="deletebidder" action="process_bidders2.php" method="post"> <table> <tr> <td><font face= "calibri" size= "3"> Delete Bidder</font></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type= "text" name="deletebidder" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type= "hidden" name="deletebidder1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type= "submit" value= "submit" /></td> </tr> </table> </form> Both forms are on the same page. Now I have tried separate processing pages with the same results (If i get one to work the other doesn't, it's either one or the other, but they won't work together. If i have the add bidder working, the delete bidder doesn't work and visa versa?? Also, ONE IMPORTANT note is, if i try to process each form on separate pages, no matter what action "name" i give the form, it will only go to the action page that is working. Example is, I tried to process one form on deletebidder.php and the other on process_bidders2.php but it didn't matter. Both forms were processed by the deletebidder.php page. How is this even possible if I gave them both seperate action "paths"?? Code: [Select] <?php ob_start(); error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set("display_errors", 1); $biddersId= $_POST['biddersId']; if (isset($addedbidder)) \\hidden form field { mysql_connect("$host", "$db_user", "$db_password")or die("cannot connect to server"); mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB"); $sql="SELECT * FROM bidders WHERE biddersId='$biddersId'"; $result=mysql_query($sql); // Mysql_num_row is counting table row $count=mysql_num_rows($result); if($count==0){ // Add $biddersId to DB and redirect to anypage mysql_Query("INSERT INTO bidders (biddersId) VALUES ('$biddersId')"); header("Location: attendance.php"); exit(); } } if (isset($deletebidder1)) \\hidden form field { $biddersId= $deletebidder; mysql_connect("$host", "$db_user", "$db_password")or die("cannot connect to server"); mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB"); mysql_query("DELETE FROM bidders WHERE biddersId='$biddersId'"); header("Location: attendance.php"); exit(); } ob_flush(); echo "<font color= \"red\" face=\"calibri\" size=\"4\">That bidder is already logged, Please press your browsers back button and try again.</font>"; ?> I have a page, that upon post, does some logic, this logic can take 1-30 minutes... Now sometimes I will get a "Page time out"....and others i wont... even if im requesting the same data. I used it successfully everytime on my stock xp, with ie8 But cant get it to work on my VISTA WIN7 x64 machins, and another xp machine, after about 1-5 min it says "page time out", then i test it on my stock xp machine, and it can run for 45 min, or runs until everything is finsihed and shows the page. Any ideas? I am just helping out a friend with his online store that he would like to add multiple currencies to. I made this script to help him out: $price = 99.95; $default_currency = 20; // displays all the file nodes if(!$xml=simplexml_load_file('http://www.ecb.int/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml')){ trigger_error('Error reading XML file',E_USER_ERROR); } else { $array['currency'][1] = 'EUR'; $array['value'][1] = 1.00; $i = 2; foreach ($xml->Cube->Cube->children() as $node) { $arr = $node->attributes(); // returns an array $array['currency'][$i] = $arr['currency']; $array['value'][$i] = $arr['rate']; $i++; } } if (isset($_POST['currency'])){ $currency = $_POST['currency']; } else { $currency = $default_currency; } $price = $array['value'][$currency] / $array['value'][$default_currency] * $price; $price = round($price, 2); $currency_name = $array['currency'][$currency]; echo '<p>Price is '.$currency_name.$price.'<br /> To change currency, select from dropdown box below.</p>'; echo '<form action="currency.php" method="post"><select name="currency">'; $i = 1; foreach ($array['currency'] as $value){ echo '<option value="'.$i.'">'.$value.'</option>'; $i++; } echo '</select><br /><input type="submit" /></form><br />'; $i = 1; foreach ($array['currency'] as $value){ echo '<p>'.$value.' = '.$array['value'][$i].'</p>'; $i++; } But for some reason it only works some of the time and I can't work out why for the life of me. If I could get some help in the matter, that would be greatly appreciated. A link to the above example can be found here. Regards, I. I've heard about a function that does so, but I did not have much luck implementing it. Is is possible for me to get the time my file was modified in this script? Code: [Select] <html><head> <title>RCM File List</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" a href="/rcm/stylesheet.css"> </head> <body> <h1>Files in RCM Directory</h1> <?php $dir="C:/xampp/htdocs/rcm/*txt"; foreach(glob($dir) as $file) { $list = "<li><a href='readfile2.php'>Filename: $file</a></li><br>"; } ?> <ul> <?php echo $list; ?> </ul> </body> </html> HI,
I was trying do add a function to my script to stop each 10 seconds, using max_execution_time. Apparently is not working and most probably from the php.ini file, that I can t change because I want for the others script to run normally.
How can I write a function inside a php file to stop everything after 10 seconds. Or how can I make a script to stop after 100 processed items and start again after 30 seconds. I need to stop this file somehow. $processedItems++; Does any one know how to run PHP script automatically at specific time interval in my local machine. I am using Windows 7. What about using the Task scheduler ? Please write to me in details how to give the path of the php page in Task Scheduler. hello, I am using a script which takes backup of my database and convert it into a zip file, I am getting following error Code: [Select] Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/USERNAME/public_html/functions.php on line 110 I know I read and search forum for solving this by editing PHP.INI file, but i Have no access to it So is their any way that I can able to run the script but modifying it??

Any help would be appreciated. Edited May 21 by Ponel 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."; } 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.

This topic has been moved to Application Design. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=316461.0 I am having a problem with PHP displaying the correct date and time.

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>"; } ?> PHP 5.2.6 We rent PHP server space on a server in California.

How do I convert the server time (PDT) into local time, regardless of where the user is? 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? Hi, The hosting provider for my domain confirm me that the server time is in EST (UTC-5). They also sent me a grab supporting that Code: [Select] server time is now: ---------------------- Sun Nov 7 02:20:01 EST 2010 ------------------- But when I use the following code, the output I get is has 1 hr difference (UTC-6) echo date("d M, Y h:i:s A",time()); Output==> 07 Nov, 2010 01:20:01 AM But it suppose to give the same time as the server, ryt? Can anybody please explain? Thanks, |
