Displaying Different Images at Different Times

droms

Hi There.

I'm Hoping theres someone who can help me with this! I run the website for a Radio Station i work for and I;m trying to code a "Who's Onair" Script I'm just wondering how I would go about doing this. what I need would be a snippet of code that displays a different image at different times of the day like so

7 - 9 Breakfast show presenter
9 - 12 Mid Morning
12 - 2 Lunchtime Show
2 - 6 - Afternoon Show
6 - 8 Dinnertime Show
8 - 10 Late night

If anyone knows the code for this It would be really helpful thanks

were in the GMT/BST Timezone

the following will print the hour of the day 0-23, you can then
do if's or switches to day who is on air

NOTE: if your server isn't hosted in your time zone, you can figure it out by adding or subtracting from the number to get YOUR time zone, then display who is on air

<?
$time = getdate();
$hour_of_day = $time['hours'];
echo $hour_of_day;
?>

Im no expert to PHP would it be possible for someone to give me an example If? Thanks

<?
if ($hour_of_day > 6 && $hour_of_day < 10)
{
echo "breakfast show"; // between 7 and 9
}
?>

$time = getdate();
$hod = $time['hours'];
echo $hod;
if($hod>6 &&  $hod<10){
	echo "Breakfast show presenters image";
}elseif($hod>8 && $hod<13){
	echo "Mid Morning image";
}if($hod>11 && $hod<15){

i was hoping you would try and figure it out on your own to teach yourself a little, maybe post some code that you think isn't working so we could tweek it

but kevin went ahead and ruined it for you, LOL

Hey!

ok it works until I edit it😃

this is what I edited it to do i had to change times because of the time difference etc

<?php

$time = getdate();
$hod = $time['hours'];
echo $hod;
if($hod>1 &&  $hod<5){
    echo "<img src=\"maurice.gif\"><BR>Maurice Taggart";
}elseif($hod>3 && $hod<8){
    echo "<img src=\"justin.gif\"><BR>Justin Macartney";
}if($hod>6 && $hod<10){
    echo "<img src=\"kenny.gif\"><BR>Kenny Davis";
}if($hod>8 && $hod<14){
    echo "<img src=\"stuart.gif\"><BR>Stuart Robinson";
}if($hod>12 && $hod<16){
    echo "<img src=\"stevie.gif\"><BR>Stevie Robinson";
}if($hod>14 && $hod<18){
    echo "<img src=\"paul.gif\"><BR>Paul Gilmour";
}if($hod>19 && $hod<23){
    echo "<img src=\"citybeat.gif\"><BR>Citybeat 96.7FM";

}
?>

and all it shows up is the current time...
