[RESOLVED] check time

bumbar

Hallo!
How can I write function for check time?
Between 22.00 & 07.00 then the function returns false if its between 07.01 and 21.59 then it returns true...

Thanks!

Maybe something along these lines...I didn't have any time to do any testing, just a thought.

function checkTime(){
   $time  = date("H.i");
   if(($time =<07.00) || ($time >= 22.00)){
       return true;
   } else {
       return false;
   }
}

Although on second thought...This might not work because date outputs as a string and I was checking as an integer. So, maybe look into time(), gets the unix timestamp, and then do the math from there.

Thank you!

I write this function:


 function check_time ($x = '22', $y = '07') {

$time = date("H"); //return 24-hour format of an hour with leading zeros

if (($time <=$y) || ($time >= $x)) {  //$now > $x and $now < $y
	return "22-7 "; // return between 22-7

} else {

	return "07.01 and 21.59 "; // return between  07.01 and 21.59
}

 }


 echo check_time ($x = '22', $y = '7');

That function won't work, or at least it won't produce the results you said you wanted:

Between 22.00 & 07.00 then the function returns false if its between 07.01 and 21.59 then it returns true...

(I assume that by "between x and y" you mean "between x and y inclusive".) With that code any time beginning with "7:", including "7:01", will cause the if clause to evaluate to false (not what you said, or even what your return strings say).

Try this:

function check_time($x = '22:00', $y = '07:00') 
{
    $time = date('H:i');
    if (($time >= $x) || ($time <= $y)) {
        return '22-7 ';
    } else {
        return '07.01 and 21.59 ';
    } 

}
