Getting Hour and Minute in PHP

I need to get the curr开发者_开发知识库ent time, in Hour:Min format can any one help me in this.

---

print date('H:i');
$var = date('H:i');

Should do it, for the current time. Use a lower case h for 12 hour clock instead of 24 hour.

More date time formats listed here.

---

Try this:

$hourMin = date('H:i');

This will be 24-hour time with an hour that is always two digits. For all options, see the PHP docs for date().

---

print date('H:i');

You have to set the correct timezone in php.ini .

Look for these lines:

[Date]

; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions

;date.timezone =

It will be something like :

date.timezone ="Europe/Lisbon"

Don't forget to restart your webserver.

Another way to address the timezone issue if you want to set the default timezone for the entire script to a certian timezone is to use date_default_timezone_set() then use one of the supported timezones.

---

function get_time($time) {
    $duration = $time / 1000;
    $hours = floor($duration / 3600);
    $minutes = floor(($duration / 60) % 60);
    $seconds = $duration % 60;
    if ($hours != 0)
        echo "$hours:$minutes:$seconds";
    else
        echo "$minutes:$seconds";
}

get_time('1119241');

In addressing your comment that you need your current time, and not the system time, you will have to make an adjustment yourself, there are 3600 seconds in an hour (the unit timestamps use), so use that. for example, if your system time was one hour behind:

$time = date('H:i',time() + 3600);

---

You can use the following solution to solve your problem:

echo date('H:i');

<?php
    date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Qatar');
    $DateAndTime = date('m-d-Y h:i:s a', time());  
    echo "<h3>The current date and time are <h3 style='color:B-G'> $DateAndTime.</h3></h3>";
    ?>
