how to use (timestamp > 72 hours) in an if statement????

[seany123]

basically im trying to give people premium content on my site, this premium content is going to be allowed by giving the buyer a unique code which goes into my database (along with a timestamp), basically im wanting an if statement to say if the timestamp > 72 hours ago, then dont allow access.

 

example:

if (timestamp >= 72 hours){
}

can anyone help me with this please?

 

thanks

Quite simple.

// either
$timestamp = 1234567890; // if numeric
// or
$timestamp = strtotime("2009-02-13 15:31:30"); // if string -> numeric

if ($timestamp >= time() - 72*3600) {
    // still good
}

That's 72 hours worth of time, not 3 days and zero hours.
