[Resolved] Round to the hour

[kcgame]

Hi,

Currently i'm using the following to get the time 2 days (48hrs) after;

$two_days_time = (strtotime("now"))+172800;

The problem is it will get the exact time, for example 0825hrs 2 days later. I only need the HOUR, without the exact minutes and seconds. Meaning if now is 26/02/2005 0825hrs, my $two_days_time will return 28/02/2005 0800hrs

Is there any standard function I can use? I'm using PHP/MySQL.
Appreciate any help, thanks🙂

If the time is 13:47, this code will return 13. Take a look at date() for further details.

date("H",strtotime(now)+172800);

I'd probably do

list($year, $month, $day, $hour) = explode(':', date('Y:n:d:h', time()+172800));
$twodays = mktime($hour, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year);
//or if you want it to round to the nearest hour
list($year, $month, $day, $hour, $minute) = explode(':', date('Y:n:d:h:i', time()+172800));
$hour += $minute > 30 ? 1 : 0;
$twodays = mktime($hour, 0, 0, $month, $day, $year);

HTH
