I have a mktime question

[julianna_jay]

I have two variable that I get handed to me ($starttime & $endtime). They were created like this:

$starttime = mktime($hour, $minute, 0, $month, $day, $year);
$endtime = mktime($hour, $minute, 0, $month, $day, $year);

I have the two variables in my function... now how do I convert them to normal english that a user will understand? I don't have access to $hour, $minute etc. I know this is an easy one. I've just totally blanked. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

mktime() returns a date/time stamp. You can use the date() function to format the date/time stamp into pretty much anything you wish. For example:

$date_ddmmyyyy = date("d/m/Y", $starttime);
$time_hhmmss = date("H:i:s", $endtime);
