Getting hour and minute in PHP

Question

I need to get the current time, in Hour: Min format, can someone help me with this.

Answer 1

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

Must do this, within the current time. Use lowercase h for 12 hour hours instead of 24 hours.

Answer 2

Try the following:

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

It will be a 24-hour time with an hour that always consists of two digits. For all options, see PHP Docs for Date () .

Answer 3

 print date('H:i'); 

You must set the correct time zone 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" 

Remember to restart the web server.

Answer 4

Another way to solve the time zone problem, if you want to set the default time zone for the whole script for the certian time zone, use date_default_timezone_set() , then use one of the supported time zones .

Answer 5

When referring to your comment that you need your current time, and not the system time, you will have to configure it yourself, there are 3600 seconds per hour (device timestamps are used), so use this. for example, if your system time was one hour lower:

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

Answer 6

 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');
