Hep please....changing "10 PM" to military time

[marknt]

Hello people i need some help. Im figuring this out.

I have a variable $var="11 PM". I want to convert it into military time like this one ---> 23

here is my code but its not working:

[code]
$var = "10"; // this is equivalent to 10 PM

$military_time = date('H', $var);
echo "Hour: $var<br>";
echo "Military time: $military_time<br>";
[/code]

Please help thanks a lot!
Cheers

If your $var IS 10 it's not equivalent to 10 PM.... how does your full time format look like?
Just the number "10" is nothing to work width in formatting time.

Hello sir alpine. I think i solved my own problem *sigh*  :D

I think im just lucky  ;D

Here is my code:
[code]

// this is a string
$mytime = "11:30 PM";
// Converting string time ( 11:30 PM ) to Military time (23:30)
$temp = strtotime("$mytime");
$military_time = date('H:i', $temp);

echo "String Time: $mytime<br>";
echo "Temp: $temp<br>";
echo "Military time: $military_time<br>";

[/code]

Thank you for replying Sir Alpine.
Cheers
