Date and Time Calculator....

NZ_Kiwis

I want to do a code which will get the current time();

The print how many hours, days minutes to a set time

For example

$now = time();
$mynewdate = 'Monday 10 August 1130pm';

echo "Minutes till newdate" \n;
echo "Hours till newdate" \n;
echo "Days till newdate";

How can I do this?

How about this code?

<font size="2" face="arial">
<?php

$nextWeek = time();
$nextWeek = $nextWeek + (3600 * 2);

echo "Now:       " . date('D j F Y @ G:i:s', $nextWeek);

echo "<br>";

$hometime =  strtotime("10 August 2009 11:30pm") - (3600 * 2);

$diff = $hometime - $nextWeek;
echo "<br>";


echo "<b>Seconds:</b> $diff";

echo "<br>";
$mins = ($diff / 60);
echo "<b>Minutes: </b>" . (int)$mins;

echo "<br>";
$hours = ($diff / 3600);
echo "<b>Hours: </b>" . (int) $hours;

echo "<br>";
$days = ($diff / (3600 * 24));
echo "<b>Days: </b>". (int) $days;

?>
</font>

That would work, so long as you're okay getting float values back instead of whole numbers. You probably want to ceil() the hours / days, otherwise floor() them and calculate the full length of minutes and hours left.
