Re: [PHP] Date Calculation Help
If the date is coming from a database, there might be a function/format already for that... And http://php.net/date may also have a format specifier for Quarter.

Re: [PHP] Date Calculation Help
Well then after or before that you have to check that the month value is between 1 and 12 to make sure there's no input errors, then what if you ever want ot change the quarters yeah anway I just wanted an excuse to tell people to go low tech and use a switch, it's only 12 entries, and you could set a default. - Dan "Fredrik Thunberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] of course ceil( month / 3 ); -- /Thunis Don't panic. --The Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy Fredrik Thunberg skrev: $q = ceil( month / 4 ); -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I think it would be easier to ask the user to enter his reminder in the
standard date format of -mm-dd and use a JavaScript date picker box
to prompt for it. Anyway, you could do something like this:
$reminderStamp = strtotime("+{$addMonths} months",time());
$reminderStamp = strtoTime("+{$addDays} days",$reminderStamp);
$date = date("Y-m-d",$reminderStamp);
$date should have a string like -mm-dd that is $addMonths and
$addDays into the future. I didn't test this.

[PHP] Date calculation
I have one more date based question. I have a month field ( $month ) and a day field ( $day ) being submitted by a form. I have a third field to be used as a date reminder for the information which was submitted as part of the form. It is a reminder to complete a task for the date was which was submitted as part of the form. How do I calculate the $reminder date based on $month and $day and have it output in the -MM-DD format? $reminder is the number of days before $month $day (I want to use $reminder in a date format to SELECT records from a mySQL table) This is why I am wanting put $reminder into a date format If $month was 6 and $day was 7 and $reminder was 6 then I would want the output to be 2007-06-01 --- We have already passed June 1st in 2006. However if $month was 11 then I would want the output to use this years date --- 2006-11-01 Any suggestions? Ron
Re: [PHP] Date Calculation
Wouldn't just making the script get 2 time stamps be more efficient, since you
are creating the database calls anyways? Or am I over simplifying it?
// current time at start of script
$before = strtotime("now");
//All your DB stuff
{
}
// current time at end of script
$after = strtotime("now");
$timed = ($after - $before);
echo 'Time for script to execute: ' . $timed .' seconds';
?>

I don't know why you're doing both TIME_TO_SEC and SEC_TO_TIME, so I'm leaving them
out as they are inverses. But I'm sure you can figure out what you want.
$query = "SELECT *, (UNIX_TIMESTAMP() - UNIX_TIMESTAMP(script_ran)) as seconds FROM
hardware_assets WHERE ethernet_address = '$ethernet_address'";
This will return all the columns from the matching rows, plus an extra field called
seconds that is the difference in seconds between now and wehn the script ran.

Re: [PHP] Date Calculation
Ok, so here is what I have. Please check to see if there is a better
way. There are a lot of database calls to me.
$ethernet_address = "00:01:93:8e:69:50";
$db_connect = mysql_connect( $host, $login, $password ) or die

$db_select = mysql_select_db($database_name) or die (mysql_error());

$timequery = "SELECT SEC_TO_TIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP() -

$timeresult = mysql_query($timequery, $db_connect) or die

$time = mysql_result($timeresult, 0, 0);

$secondresult = mysql_query($secondquery, $db_connect) or die
(mysql_error());
$seconds = mysql_result($secondresult, 0, 0);

This returns the seconds since the timestamp was set for the row where
the ethernet address of the computer is equal to $ethernet_address. I
can then do the math so that I can display the hours or minutes. I can
even have it so that when the time is too long, it displays in red, or
bold, or whatever I want.

You can do something like this (replace date with column name no

$result = mysql_query("SELECT SEC_TO_TIME(UNIX_TIMESTAMP() -
UNIX_TIMESTAMP('2004-10-01 13:45:00')) as diff");

Re: [PHP] Date Calculation
I guess. Are you telling me that I should take the timestamp, convert it to epoch time, the us the time function to get the current epoch time, then subtract the timestamp epoch time from the current epoch time? I think that is what you are saying. I know I can get the current epoch time in php with time(). How do I convert the timestamp in the database to epoch time, or find the epoch time in bash? If I can't do it in either, then I am subtracting apples from oranges. On Oct 28, 2004, at 2:32 PM, Jay Blanchard wrote: [snip] That's not quite what I am talking about. I looked at that already.

Re: [PHP] date calculation
Yes, will be OK with all dates (though the valid range of a timestamp is
typically from Fri, 13 Dec 1901 20:45:54 GMT to Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07
GMT.)
The function you want for numeric dates is:
int mktime ( int hour, int minute, int second, int month, int day, int year)
so, in your example (1st Feb 2003):
$mydate = mktime(0,0,0,2,1,2003);
