add time to time

[DigitalExpl0it]

How can I add more time to a time string from a database

example:

$getfrom_database = "10:12 am";

Id like to add 5 mins to that time

$try = mktime(date("g"), date("i")+5, date("a"));

??

I think this should work for you

SELECT "1997-12-31 23:59:59" + INTERVAL 5 MINUTE;

There are loads more examples at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Date_and_time_functions.html

Hope this helps

		$hour = date("g");
		$min = date("i");

$hour.":".($min + 5)." ".$ampm
