I get the input from an html form (I'm trying to create a page where employees could submit their work hours - "timesheets"). The time_in is the hour picked from a list/menu box. I'm not sure what value I should pass to the script; I thought numbers 0 through 24 would be a good idea (starting at 12am as 0). And then the time passed would be $time_out - $time_in (e.g. 9am to 5pm would be 17-9=8hrs worked). But that doesn't work for one instance - when the time_out is 12am. I was wondering if anyone had to make a similar calculation in any of their scripts; it's rather the question for the logic solution I guess not the script itself.

I thought each hour from 12am through 12pm would supply integer from 0 to 24 (e.g. 9am to 5pm is 17-9=8) but that does work except when checkout is 12am.(I don't have to deal with minutes in this script) Thanks Mariusz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
