Greeting Time

[DigitalExpl0it]

Im trying to post out text at a certain time of day.

example:

$today = date("g:i");  

$ap = date("a");  

echo $today.$ap;
if ($ap == "am" && $today >= "1:00") {
echo "<br>Good Morning!";
} elseif ($ap == "pm" && $today >= "12:00") {
echo "<br>Good Afternoon!";
} elseif ($ap == "pm" && $today >= "5:00") {
echo "<br>Good Evening!";
} 

but all I get is Good Morning! nothing else.

any ideas?

I think this will work better

    $date = date ("H");
    if ($date < 12) {
	 echo "Good Morning!";
	} elseif ($date < 18) {
	 echo "Good Afternoon!";
    } else {
	 echo "Good Night!";
    }
