Would this use of strtotime work?

[ghurty]

Would this work? I will be passing on a number as the variable for $hour and $minute and  also eaither a AM or PM for $ampm.

 

$time_in_24_hour_format  = DATE("H:i", strtotime("{$hour}:{$minute} {$ampm}"));

 

 

Thanks

Try it out and see. The best way to see if something works is to try it:

 

$hour = 1;
$minute = 30;
$ampm = "pm";
$time_in_24_hour_format  = DATE("H:i", strtotime("{$hour}:{$minute} {$ampm}"));
echo $time_in_24_hour_format . " 24 hour time";

 

If it displays the 24 hour time, it worked. If not, you can use the mktime function instead of strtotime.
