date("Hi") returns wrong value.. php.net manual is wrong?

[karthikeyan_coder]

i need current Hour and Minute in the format 00 to 23 and 00 to 59.. i searched in
http://in2.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

[quote]H 24-hour format of an hour with leading zeros 00 through 23[/quote]
[quote]i Minutes with leading zeros 00 to 59[/quote]

i tried this
$k = date("Hi");
echo("$k");
output is...
190753

after each refresh it is just incrementing.. :(

I need current Hour and Minute in 00 to 23 hour format and 00 to 59 minutes format... any other way to get???

Thank you.

It looks like you are using "His" not "Hi" as the argument to the date() function. This works for me:
[code]<?php
$k = date("Hi");
echo $k;
?>[/code]
