How can I add 5 minutes to a visitors local time?

[Webwonder]

I need to be able to add 5 minutes to my visitors local time and show it on their page.

 

I want to make sure that the time it shows is their geographical local time + 5 minutes. How can this be done?

echo(gmstrftime(%H).":");

echo(gmstrftime(%M)+5.":");

echo(gmstrftime(%S).":");

 

that should work.. not tested

I had never heard of the strftime() function, maybe it's a better solution if that code works. Here was my solution:

 

<?php
$local = localtime($time, true);
echo "Now: ".$local['tm_hour']." : ".$local['tm_min']."<br />";

$latermin = $localplus['tm_min'] + 5;
if($latermin >= 60) {
$laterhr++;
if($laterhr == 24) {
	$laterhr = "00";
}
$latermin = $latermin - 60;
if(strlen($latermin) == 1) {
	$latermin = "0"+$latermin;
}
}
echo "Later: ".$laterhr." : ".$latermin;
?>

Seems a little inefficient... But it works. Also, this is for 24-hour time... 12-hour time would be just another few lines of very inefficient code.

i thought about doing that very same thing but I figured it was way to time consuming so i searched the php date functions for a time function and found those
