Time

If I have a time in this format: 1050620559, how can I convert it to this: April 17th 2003, 06:02 PM?

Try date() or gmdate()

Look at the manual for date().
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

But for April 17th 2003, 06:02 PM, do...

date("F dS Y, h:i A");

Hope that helped. 🙂

Huh? I couldn't understand that...

Did you mean you post the current match if there is one that day, and if there isn't one, then you display all the matches in the current week?

You could do that with IFs. Get all your data from your database, or text file or whatever. Put them in an Array, use For Each to check each entry, and IFs to see if an entry's date matches the current date. If so display it, and stop the loop. If there are none, then display everything that week.

I think that'll work - if you could make sense of it. 😛

What I meant to say was I already have this (1050620559) in my database and I need to print this (April 17th 2003, 06:02 PM) on my page.

PHP.NET:

It is possible to use date() and mktime() together to find dates in the future or the past. Example 3. date() and mktime() example

<?php
$tomorrow = mktime (0,0,0,date("m") ,date("d")+1,date("Y"));
$lastmonth = mktime (0,0,0,date("m")-1,date("d"), date("Y"));
$nextyear = mktime (0,0,0,date("m"), date("d"), date("Y")+1);
?>

Note: This can be more reliable than simply adding or subtracting the number of seconds in a day or month to a timestamp because of daylight savings time.

I think you can do:

$nextweek = mktime (0,0,0,date("m")  ,date("d")+7,date("Y"));

But don't forget about my problem:

What I meant to say was I already have this (1050620559) in my database and I need to print this (April 17th 2003, 06:02 PM) on my page.

I think this'll work:

date("F dS Y, h:i A", $timestamp);

Good luck!
