Script having function to return unix timestamp for next day

[poacher]

Hello friends, this is my first ques here. I need to test a script that uses unix timestamp with time() function. I need to test the out come of the logic for the next day. hence I need to changed the code that uses my function instead to time() to provide tomorrow's timestamp. Here is what I wrote and is not working. Since Im new to php, i need your help:-

 

filename  = qa_time1.php

 

<?php

 

  function qa_time1(){

    $current_time = time();

    return $current_time;

  }

qa_time1();

 

?>

Use the strtotime() function

 

<?php
function qa_time1() {
   return (strtotime('tomorrow'));
}?>

I think the above example is "better" but here's another way, just so you learn a bit about manipulating timestamps..

 

$tomorrow = time() + ( 60 * 60 * 24 ); # 60 seconds * 60 minutes * 24 hours

<?php

$tomorrow = mktime(date('H'),date('i'),date('s'),date('m'),date('d')+1,date('y'));

?>

 

This will give you right now 1 day later. This is another way of manipulating dates and times.
