PHP - Simple Converting Dates Help

Hey guys,

What I'm trying to do is set 2 dates.  Today's date and then a date 14 days from now.  However, I want it to increase the month if by adding 14 days will bring me to the next month, same with the year.

I have this, but it doesn't increment the month or year.

$week = mktime(11, 59, 59, date("m"), date("d")+14, date("y"));
$date =  date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $week);

Hi guys,

I am trying to create a program which manages campaigns.
each campaign has a start date and and end date.
a user has to enter data releated to the campaign everyday

example
start date: 10-1-2011
end date: 17-1-2011

now all this information is stored in 2 tables
1st table is "campaigns" this stores the campaign name, start date and end date
and 2nd table is "campaign_data" this table stored the data for each campaign and also date of when that data was entered

my question is, if the user did not enter data on 11-1-2011 how will I know this, keeping in mind the month diffrence which can accur if the length of the campign was 2 month long?


table:
campaigns
fields:
id | campaign_name | start_date | end_date

table:
campaign_data
fields:
id | campaign_id | date | page

Thank you

Hey, I have just recently coded a forum and my topics are ordered by date. This means if there is a topic at 4pm and then there is another topic made at 4:01pm the topic which was posted at 4:01pm will be listed at the top.

I know how to add timezones but there is bit of a problem,  if  person from the UK posts a topic and his/hers timezone is set to:

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');()

this means the time at which the topic was posted will be 20:36pm (Just a randome time example).

However if someone posted a topic from america/los_angeles one hour before the one above his/her time will be 11:36 am. Even though this topic was posted one hour before the UK post. The UK topic will override it because it is 8:36pm. In fact, all UK topics will show up at the top and all the america/los_angeles topics will show bellow.

How do I slove this problem? I just don't get it even tough I looked online.

Please help, thanks.

i want to created a case like the following need help with the syntax:
Code: [Select]
switch (true)
{
case($fromdate-$todate==17-04-2001-25-04-2011):
echo $finalprice = $result;
        break;
}

Hi,
So I only want my users to be able to perform certain tasks each 12 hours.
This is the code I use:
Code: [Select]
function canVote($ip, $vote_id, $updateTimer = true){
$time = date("Y-m-d H:i:s");

$this->CI->db->where('vote_id', $vote_id);
$this->CI->db->where('user_ip', $ip);
$this->CI->db->from('votes_voters');
$count =  $this->CI->db->count_all_results();
/*$count = $this->CI->db
->where('vote_id =', $vote_id)
->where('user_ip =', $ip)
->from('votes_voters')
-count_all_results();*/

$row = $this->CI->db
->where('vote_id =', $vote_id)
->where('user_ip =', $ip)
->get('votes_voters')
->row();

if($count == 0){
$data = array(
   'vote_id' => $vote_id,
   'user_ip' => $ip,
   'last_vote' => $time
);

$this->CI->db->insert('votes_voters', $data);
return true;
}
else{
$last_vote = $row->last_vote;
if($last_vote + strtotime("12 hours") < $time){
return false;
}
else{
if($updateTimer = true){
$data = array(
               'last_vote' => $time,
            );

$this->CI->db->where('vote_id', $vote_id);
$this->CI->db->where('user_ip', $ip);
$this->CI->db->update('votes_voters', $data);
}
return true;
}
}
}
Apparently the failing bit is this:
Code: [Select]
if($last_vote + strtotime("12 hours") < $time){
return false;
}
I believe you can guess what I'm trying to do here, if variable 1 + 12 hours is smaller than variable 2, then return false.
Any help is much appreciated.

I have looked and looked around on google, but I can't seem to enter the right keywords for this.  I have an events page and I need the events to only display between the date ranges...........startdate and enddate.  here is the entire code for the page,

This is a big big big part of website and so I really need this to be working.  Is there also a way I could possibly display this by events in a month instead of by day?  If any body could help me, that would be so awesome.

I'm trying to make a script to check a files date time and if its under so many seconds long the page will refresh.  here is what I've got.  I've been testing the output of the date() functions but when i do the math all i get is a 0.  where did i go wrong? is it just i can't do math with dates?  Thanks in advanced.
  Code: [Select]
<html><head>
<meta http-Equiv="Cache-Control" Content="no-cache">
<meta http-Equiv="Pragma" Content="no-cache">
<meta http-Equiv="Expires" Content="0">
<?
$proFile = "profilePics/profile.jpg";
//if ( date ("m d Y H:i:s.") - date ("m d Y H:i:s.", filemtime($proFile)) <= 00 00 0000 00:00:04 ){ //this is where the magic should happen.
//echo "<meta http-equiv="refresh" content='4'>"; }
?>
</head>
<?
echo date ("m d Y H:i:s.");
echo "<br>";
echo date ("m d Y H:i:s.", filemtime($proFile));
echo "<br>";
echo  date ("m d Y H:i:s.") - date ("m d Y H:i:s.", filemtime($proFile)); //only outputs 0

?>

I was just wondering if anyone can reccomend the best way to get dates from a database and turn them into dates you can display.  For example if you have a date stored such as 23/08/10, is there an easy way to turn this into 23rd August 2010?  Thanks for any help. 

Been a while since I hit a snag but have a new one!

I have hit the old problem that I need to be able to input dates pre 13th December 1901 which appears to not work when using strtotime
<?php echo date("F j, Y ", strtotime($row_seasonview['season_start'])); ?>

Following a bit of googling it seemed that the alternative was to set the format in the query
Code: [Select]
SELECT *,
DATE_FORMAT(`season_start`,'%D %M %Y') AS startdate,
DATE_FORMAT(`season_end`,'%D %M %Y') AS enddate
FROM seasons
WHERE season_id = %sand to call the date from that
<?php echo $row_seasonview['startdate']; ?>
but this just comes back with 'Query was empty'. If I remove the two DATE_FORMAT lines the query runs fine.

I know there must be a way round this but cannot fathom it out. Any suggestions would be greatfully welcomed!!!

Thanks in advance

Hi, I have a created comment system, now what i am after is when the comment is posted the time is posted in hidden format. All is going fine but what i don't know, what should the time be posted as example date(H:m:s) or... the result i want is time in minutes first e.g.
commented 2 mins ago and increasing to hours after that days. Could some one kindly guide me in the right directions.

Code: [Select]
<?php
$date = date('Y-m-d');
$strtime = strtotime('today +14 days'); 
$strtime = date('Y-m-d', $strtime);
if ($distributor != 1) {
$select = "SELECT deal_data.headline AS headline FROM deal_data
WHERE str_to_date(deal_data.end_date,'%Y/%m/%d') BETWEEN str_to_date('" . $date . "', '%Y/%m/%d') and str_to_date('" . $strtime . "', '%Y/%m/%d')";
}else {
$select = "SELECT deal_data.headline AS headline FROM deal_data
WHERE str_to_date(deal_data.end_date,'%d.%m.%Y') BETWEEN '" . $date . "' and '" . $strtime . "'";
}
?>
The dates are formatted in the database as Varchar (I don't do that anymore, this is an old project) and are formatted as: "09/12/2010".

Anything wrong with the above code that would make it not work and return queries?

There are two things I want done.

1. Grab the current date in TIMESTAMP form and increase by a certain number of days as assigned by $days()
2. Similar to the previous one, it will grab an already specified TIMESTAMP, and work from there

All it echoes is 86400, which I assume is the number of seconds?

Code: [Select]
<?php
$days = 1;
echo strtotime("+$days days", strtotime($date));
?>

Hi I'm trying to get this to work. 

I have known date in MySQL database entered as 2019-08-01 and I need to calculate from that date to current time. 

What I have is this code

$date_ts = strtotime($row['date_ts']); //Timestamp
$date_str = date("M-d-Y", $date_ts); //String in format MMM-DD-YYYY
$TotalTime = floor((time() - $date_ts)/(60*60*24)) . ' days';//Total in days

but my result showing as ==> 18367 days

Could someone please help me get this to work so it shows the right number of days. thank you

 

Hi All,

Bit stuck on something I think should be quite simple.
I have a table which includes events that have a state date and end date (startdate, enddate).

I've got a search function that pulls out with various criteria etc, however i'm now doing a search by date.

For example, an event may start on 1st Jan 2011 and finish on 1st May 2011.
If my search for which events are on on the 2nd February; it should pull the above event out, as it lies inbetween those dates.

Code: [Select]
SELECT * FROM events WHERE ((DAY(events.startdate <= '".date('d',$day)."') AND DAY(events.enddate >= '".date('d',$day)."')) AND MONTH(events.startdate <= '".date('m',$day)."') AND MONTH(events.enddate >= '".date('m',$day)."'))

Theres a bunch of other stuff joining tables etc, but you get the idea.
For some reason this isn't working?

I've got it working by month, but month AND day is eluding me. I also need to add in the year, but that isn't so important at the moment.

Any help would be amazing!

Thanks

E
