mktime help

[djones]

mktime is confusing for me. Can someone please help me to convert 09:00:00 (HH:MM:SS) add 30 min to the time, 09:30:00, and convert to unix time 093000?

Can someone help please?

If you just need to add 30 minutes to the time, then do this:
[code]<?php
$time = "09:00:00";
echo date('H:i:s',strtotime("+30 minutes")-time()+strtotime($time));
?>[/code]

That worked. I would have never figured out the strtotime(). Thanks

shorten it up a bit:
[code]
<?php
$time = "09:00:00";
echo date('H:i:s', strtotime("$time +30 minutes"));
?>
[/code]

Ahh, nice. I was looking in the manual, but I couldn't see if it was possible to give a time and a +30 minutes thing...

yes, i believe you can also do it like this:
[code]
<?php
echo date('H:i:s', strtotime($time, "+30 minutes"));
?>
