Using Strtotime()
Lets say I have a variable $time = 'Apr 30 2007 7:00AM'. Is there a function that I can use or a way of using the strtotime function to see if that variable $time is between the hours of 7am and 7pm?

Strtotime
I am trying to compare 2 dates, so that if a post is older that 90 days the user is not allowed to edit it. i am storing the post date in mysql in datetime field (2007-04-21 10:53:07). My question is how to user strtotime function to compare the NOW() date&time with the stored one, so if greater that 90 days return true.

A Bug With Strtotime
Something seems to be wrong with the strtotime function in PHP5. I've created a staff resourcing database, which is used to assign staff to projects on a weekly basis. The database stores assignments against a week ending date, which is derived using: PHP Code: $week = date('Y-m-d',strtotime('Sunday')) This works fine, $week is set to the current week ending date (Sunday) using this. However, I also create $nextweek and $lastweek using: PHP Code: $nextweek = date('Y-m-d',strtotime('next sunday',strtotime($week))); $lastweek = date('Y-m-d',strtotime('last sunday',strtotime($week))); This has also been working fine, until we got to week ending Sunday 30th October. For some reason, when $week = 2005-10-30, $nextweek becomes 2005-10-05, which is a Saturday. I've tried replacing the 'next Sunday' with '+7 days', but this returns the same date. Is this a bug? Am I missing something?

Run A Script Every X Minutes
Computer 1 sends every 10 minutes a file to Computer 2. This Computer 2 is actually a web hosting service and i don't have a full control. I want to run a script on this Comp2, that will check every 30 minutes, if the file exist and its timestamp is no older than 30 minutes. If it's older, then sends me a notification email (in case if Computer 1 freezes). All ok, but how can i run the script every X minutes?

StrToTime () Issue
I'm using strtotime to get the timestamp for midnight. I have a statistics script for my pagecounter that displays hits since midnight. I also display the number of hours and minutes passed since midnight. $start = strtotime ('today 00:00'); $timepassed = date ('H:i', time () - $start); The weird part is at 11.30 AM it says 12 hrs and 30 minutes have passed. I tried adding GMT+1 like so: $start = strtotime ('today 00:00 GMT+1'); because I suspect the fact I'm in Holland is the reason for the miscalculation. But this format is refused by strtotime. (-1) Does anyone know a) whether this is indeed the problem, and b) how to fix it. Preferrably not alone for me here, but in suc a way anyone around the globe would have a correctly working script if they'd use mine. The php page for strtotime pointed me to a link at gnu.org where the syntax for it apparantly is listed, but I get a no such page error.

Strtotime And Cron
I've got a db of events which have dates attached to them which have been created using strtotime(). They don't have any time.. just the date. I've got a script which gets today's date using strtotime("today"). I use this as a comparison to find events which happen today. This works fine when I call the script from a URL, however when I called the php file from a cron job... the strtotime("today") creates values which are different each time. Are there any thoughts on what could be causing this? Firstly, I was wondering if the cron job was somehow using a different timezone to me (I'm On GMT). How do I explicitly tell php to use GMT.. .but then again.. this should matter too much, because I jsut want to date not the time! It also wouldn't account for the changing values of strtotime("today"). Just out of interest, does php4 and php5 handle strtotime("today") differently? I'm just wondering if cron is using the correct version of php?

Strtotime() Pre-1970
if I code $birth = strtotime(Ƈ April 1950'); then $birth = -1, I guess that this is because time "began" on 1st Jan, 1970. (although I seem to remember a few good times before that). So, what's the easiest way to find out how many days old I am (exactly, please, not just taking 1 April 1970 and adding 20 *365, which does not account for leap years?

Strtotime Failure
I don't know how I should input date + time into a strtotime function (i'm a total noob) so I tested this: <? $d=01; $M=01; $y=1970; $h=01; $m=01; $s=01; echo "$d $M $y $h:$m:$s"; echo strtotime("$d $M $y $h:$m:$s"); ?> I get as echo strtotime '-1', wich means the strtotime has a failure. Can anybody explain me why? Or can anybody tell me how I can make a strtotime function that puts a timestamp in the database depending on the date and time inserted in a textbox? (one textbox or one textbox to insert the day, another to insert the year,...) I should be able to change a format like (for example) this : 01-02-1990 00:00:00 (midnight) into a timestamp. so dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm:ss (or something else just to make it work)I'm clueless.

Strtotime Problem
How do I find the number of seconds from a certain date to the current? I have logged in my database a completion date within the past year and I want to figure out how many seconds it has been since the completion date until now. I know the strtotime command is fairly versatile and I have tried the following without the right conclusion: PHP Code: strtotime("since ".$completion_date); //and strtotime("from ".$completion_date); What do I need to do to fix this?

Cookies Are 2 Minutes Off In IE (with Setcookie)
I'm testing pages using cookies set with setcookie. I suddenly started experiencing failures in IE. But Firefox was still fine. I noticed that it had to do with the cookie expiry time (I have v. 7). I had lowered the expiry threshold so I wouldn't have to keep clearing my browser cookies to test. Is there some kind of minimum expiry time for IE?? Like 2 minutes...? Does IE shave two minutes off the top? Here's what I found: time() + 3600 gives me 58 minutes in IE and 1 hour in Firefox time() + 60 gives nothing I have time to notice in IE and a minute in firefox time() + 120 gives me a couple seconds in IE and 2 min in firefox Is this an IE "feature" or is it me that's doing something wrong? I am new to this after all... example of how i set the cookies: $hour = time() + 120; setcookie(wpsite, $_POST['username'], $hour); does work for the most part, just that little issue so far. I don't care whether it's fixable or not, it's just that I though I was going crazy at first when I was trying to troubleshoot the problem; could not figure out what was going on initially.

Set A Session To Expire In 20 Minutes
Let's say you set a session to expire in 20 minutes. Does reading and/or writing a session value bump that time up each time, or does it expire 20 minutes from when it was first created? I am pretty sure it is the former, but I want to check to make sure.

Session To Expire After 30 Minutes

Strange Strtotime() Behavior
I'm trying to use the strtotime() function to manage sessions. But I get the following <?php print(time() . " - " . strtotime("+1 hour")); ?> outputs: 1097380666 - 1097308800 Strange strtotime("+1 hour") produced a time stamp less than the current time. It also never changes. In other words strtotime("+1 hour") always results in the time stamp 1097308800. I have also tried strtotime("+1 hour", time()) with the same result Is this correct, have I misunderstood the strtotime() function? I'm running Gentoo with kernal 2.6.8.1, php 5.0.1, apache2

Strtotime And A Very Mysterious Date
Namely the thirteenth of December 1901, 12:45:52, Pacific Time. All dates later than this passed in format "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss" to the strtotime function return the correct unix timestamp value (as can be verified by passing it back to date()). If a date earlier than 1901-12-13 12:45:52 is used, it returns an error. I tried this for a while to find the exact cut-off point, and this is it. Any reason - possibly a limitation of the integer value that is used? I didn't find this documented anywhere...
