i am having an issue with a function, seems it dose work, but at the same time it does not. sad :(

 

i need to turn a number, (seconds count) into a string.

 

here is what i have

function timeToString($seconds){
$seconds = ceil($seconds);
$string = array();
$days = floor($seconds/60/60/24);
$hours = floor(($seconds-($days*60*60*24))/60/60);
$mins = floor(($seconds-($hours*60*60))/60);
$secs = floor(($seconds-($mins*60+$hours*60*60)));
if($days>0)
	$string[] = $days.' Day(s)';
if($hours>0)
	$string[] = $hours.' Hour(s)';
if($mins>0)
	$string[] = $mins.' Minute(s)';
if($secs>0)
	$string[] = $secs.' Second(s)';
return (count($string)>0) ? trim(implode(', ',$string)) : 'n/a';
}

 

example:

timeToString(12)=12 Second(s)
timeToString(60)=1 Minute(s)
timeToString(121)=2 Minute(s), 1 Second(s)
timeToString(333)=5 Minute(s), 33 Second(s)
timeToString(9999)=2 Hour(s), 46 Minute(s), 39 Second(s)
timeToString(9392042)=108 Day(s), 16 Hour(s), 155574 Minute(s), 2 Second(s)

<?php
function timeToString($seconds)
{
    if(!is_int($seconds) || $seconds < 0) $seconds = 0;
    $seconds = ceil($seconds);
    
    $time = array();
    $string = array();
    
    $secondsTranslations = array('day' => 60 * 60 * 24, 'hour' => 60 * 60, 'min' => 60, 'sec' => 1);
    foreach($secondsTranslations as $key => $trans)
    {
        $time[$key] = floor($seconds / $trans);
        $seconds = $seconds - ($time[$key] * $trans);
    }

    if($time['day']>0)
        $string[] = $time['day'].' Day(s)';
    if($time['hour']>0)
        $string[] = $time['hour'].' Hour(s)';
    if($time['min']>0)
        $string[] = $time['min'].' Minute(s)';
    if($time['sec']>0)
        $string[] = $time['sec'].' Second(s)';
    return (count($string)>0) ? trim(implode(', ',$string)) : 'n/a';
}

$tests = array(-15, 12, 60, 121, 333, 9999, 9392042);
foreach($tests as $test)
{
    echo $test . ': ' . timeToString($test) . '<br />';
}

 

Returns

-15: n/a
12: 12 Second(s)
60: 1 Minute(s)
121: 2 Minute(s), 1 Second(s)
333: 5 Minute(s), 33 Second(s)
9999: 2 Hour(s), 46 Minute(s), 39 Second(s)
9392042: 108 Day(s), 16 Hour(s), 54 Minute(s), 2 Second(s)

i have this working :) thank you everyone for your help.

 

function secondsToTime($seconds){
$hours = floor($seconds/(60*60));
$days = floor($hours/24);
if($days>0)
	$hours = floor($hours-($days*24));
$weeks = floor($days/7);
if($weeks>0)
	$days = floor($days-($weeks*7));
$months = floor($weeks/4);
if($months>0)
	$weeks = floor($weeks-($months*4));
$years = floor($months/12);
if($years>0)
	$months = floor($months-($years*12));
$minuteDivisor = $seconds%(60*60);
$minutes = floor($minuteDivisor/60);
$secondDivisor = $minuteDivisor%60;
$seconds = ceil($secondDivisor);
return array(
	'y'=>(int)$years,
	'n'=>(int)$months,
	'w'=>(int)$weeks,
	'd'=>(int)$days,
	'h'=>(int)$hours,
	'm'=>(int)$minutes,
	's'=>(int)$seconds,
);
}

function timeToString($seconds){
$time = secondsToTime($seconds);
if($time['y']>0)
	$string[] = $time['y'].' Years(s)';
if($time['n']>0)
	$string[] = $time['n'].' Months(s)';
if($time['w']>0)
