Hi all,
 
I need some help with my php script. I'm working on the script to parsing the time from my other script so I can convert the hours into format, example: the hours I parse is 1:00 AM so I can convert it to 20140427010000.
 
 
Here is the list of format for 3 channels:
 
20140427010000

    20140429040000

 

 
 
 
 
Here is the PHP:
 
    
<?php
    ini_set('max_execution_time', 300);
    $errmsg_arr = array();
    $errflag = false;
    include ('simple_html_dom.php');
    
    function getState($string)
    {
      $ex = explode(" ",$string);
      return $ex[1];
    }
    
    $xml .= '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>';
    $xml .= '
    <tv generator-info-name="www.mysite.com/xmltv">';
    $base1 = "http://www.mysite.com/get-listing.php";
    $html = file_get_html($base1);    
    $i = 0;
    
    foreach($html->find('p[id=links]') as $element)
    {
      $program_list[ $count ] = array();
      $id_split = explode("?", $element->plaintext);
      $id_split = explode("&", $link_split[1]);
      $channels = explode("channels=",$id_split[0]);
      $channels = $channels[1];
      $id = explode("id=",$id_split[1]);
      $id = $id[1];
    
      //channels
      //$channel_test = $html->find('p[id=channels]', 10)->plaintext;
      //echo $channel_test;
    
      $program_list[$count]['channels'] = $channels;
      $program_list[$count]['id'] = $id;
    
      $channels_split = explode("?", $element->plaintext);
      $channels_split = explode("&", $channels_split[1]);
      $channel_id = explode("channels=",$channels_split[0]);
      $channel_id = $channel_id[1];
      $my_id = explode("id=",$channels_split[1]);
      $my_id = $my_id[1];
    
      $channel = urlencode($channel_id);
      $id_1 = urlencode($my_id);
      $html_two = file_get_html("http://www.mysite.com/get-listing.php?channels=" . $channel . "&id=" . $my_id);
      $time1 = $html_two->find('span[id=time1]',0)->plaintext;
      $time2 = $html_two->find('span[id=time2]',0)->plaintext;
      $time3 = $html_two->find('span[id=time3]',0)->plaintext;
      $time4 = $html_two->find('span[id=time4]',0)->plaintext;
      $time5 = $html_two->find('span[id=time5]',0)->plaintext;
      $time6 = $html_two->find('span[id=time6]',0)->plaintext;
      $time7 = $html_two->find('span[id=time7]',0)->plaintext;
      $time8 = $html_two->find('span[id=time8]',0)->plaintext;
      $time9 = $html_two->find('span[id=time9]',0)->plaintext;
      $time10 = $html_two->find('span[id=time10]',0)->plaintext;
      $time11 = $html_two->find('span[id=time11]',0)->plaintext;
      $time12 = $html_two->find('span[id=time12]',0)->plaintext;
      $time13 = $html_two->find('span[id=time13]',0)->plaintext;
      $time14 = $html_two->find('span[id=time14]',0)->plaintext;
    
    
      $array = array(
        $time1,
        $time2,
        $time3,
        $time4,
        $time5,
        $time6,
        $time7,
        $time8,
        $time9,
        $time10,
        $time11,
        $time12,
        $time13,
        $time14,
      );
    
      // Save the output format
      $DATE_FORMAT_STRING = "YmdHis";
    
      // GET the current STAGE
      $current_state = getState($array[0]);
      $offset = 0;
    
      foreach($array as $time)
      {
        // Get the item state.  
        $this_state = getState($time);
    
        // check if we past a day? 
        if($current_state == "PM" && $this_state == "AM")
        {
          $offset++;
        }
        $this_unix = strtotime($time) + (60 * 60 * 24 * $offset);
        echo date($DATE_FORMAT_STRING, $this_unix);
        echo "<br></br>";
        $current_state = $this_state;
      }
    }
    ?>
 

I want to know how do you get each of those format to output them in the xml start="" and end="" like this?

 
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
    <tv generator-info-name="www.mysite.com/XML">
      <programme channel='test start='20140427010000' stop='20140427013000'>
        <title lang="en"></title>
        <sub-title lang="en"></sub-title>
        <desc lang="en"> </desc>
        <category lang="en"></category>
      </programme>
      <programme channel='test start='20140427013000' stop='20140427020000'>
        <title lang="en"></title>
        <sub-title lang="en"></sub-title>
        <desc lang="en"> </desc>
        <category lang="en"></category>
      </programme>
      <programme channel='test start='20140427020000' stop='20140427023000'>
        <title lang="en"></title>
        <sub-title lang="en"></sub-title>
        <desc lang="en"> </desc>
        <category lang="en"></category>
      </programme>
      <programme channel='test start='20140427023000' stop='20140428063000'>
        <title lang="en"></title>
        <sub-title lang="en"></sub-title>
        <desc lang="en"> </desc>
        <category lang="en"></category>
      </programme>
      <programme channel='test start='20140428063000' stop='20140428070000'>
        <title lang="en"></title>
        <sub-title lang="en"></sub-title>
        <desc lang="en"> </desc>
        <category lang="en"></category>
      </programme>
      </tv>

I tried to use the values, but I will get the wrong format and the format will get mess up if I use the values.

Does anyone know how I can get the format for per channel using with the values if that is possible?

I have got a problem with my PHP and I need your urgent help. I have the list of 3 urls where I'm sending the request to each url to get the hours so I will convert it to format.

 

Example: I will get the hours of 7:30 AM, so I will convert them into this 20140426073000, for 9:30AM i will convert it to 20140426093000. 

 

For Url one input:

 




    7:30 AM

    9:30 AM


 

 

For Url two input:

 




    9:00 AM

    11:00 AM


 

 

For Url three input:

 




    9:00 AM

    10:00 AM


 

 

In that way, when I send the request to each url to get the hours and converting the hours into format, I will get the three same input of format when I run through the loops.

 

Here is the input:

 




    20140426073000

    20140426093000



    20140426073000

    20140426093000



    20140426073000

    20140426093000


 

 

It should be looks like this:

 




    20140426073000

    20140426093000



    20140426009000

    20140426011000



    20140426090000

    20140426100000


 

 

 

Here is the code:

 




    <?php

    ini_set('max_execution_time', 300);

    $errmsg_arr = array();

    $errflag = false;

    include ('simple_html_dom.php');

    function getState($string)

    {

      $ex = explode(" ",$string);

      return $ex[1];

    }

    $xml .= '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>';

    $xml .= '

    <tv generator-info-name="www.mysite.com/xmltv">';

    $base1 = "http://www.mysite.com/get-listing.php";

    $html = file_get_html($base1);      

    $i = 0;

    $count = 0;

    foreach($html->find('p[id=links]') as $element)

    {

      $program_list[ $count ] = array();

      $id_split = explode("?", $element->plaintext);

      $id_split = explode("&", $link_split[1]);

      $channels = explode("channels=",$id_split[0]);

      $channels = $channels[1];

      $id = explode("id=",$id_split[1]);

      $id = $id[1];

      //channels

      //$channel_test = $html->find('p[id=channels]', 10)->plaintext;

      //echo $channel_test;

      $program_list[$count]['channels'] = $channels;

      $program_list[$count]['id'] = $id;

      $channels_split = explode("?", $element->plaintext);

      $channels_split = explode("&", $channels_split[1]);

      $channel_id = explode("channels=",$channels_split[0]);

      $channel_id = $channel_id[1];

      $my_id = explode("id=",$channels_split[1]);

      $my_id = $my_id[1];

      $channel = urlencode($channel_id);

      $id_1 = urlencode($my_id);

      $html_two = file_get_html("http://www.mysite.com/get-listing.php?channels=" . $channel . "&id=" . $my_id);

      $time1 = $html_two->find('span[id=time1]',0)->plaintext;

      $time2 = $html_two->find('span[id=time2]',0)->plaintext;

      $time3 = $html_two->find('span[id=time3]',0)->plaintext;

      $array = array(

        $time1,

        $time2,

        $time3,

      );

      // Save the output format

      $DATE_FORMAT_STRING = "YmdHis";

      // GET the current STAGE

      $current_state = getState($array[0]);

      $offset = 0;

      foreach($array as $time)

      {

        // Get the item state.  

        $this_state = getState($time);

        // check if we past a day? 

        if($current_state == "PM" && $this_state == "AM")

        {

          $offset++;

        }

        $this_unix = strtotime($time) + (60 * 60 * 24 * $offset);

        $values[] = date($DATE_FORMAT_STRING, $this_unix);

        //echo date($DATE_FORMAT_STRING, $this_unix);

        //echo "<br></br>";

      }

      echo $values[0];

      echo "<br>";

      echo $values[1];

      echo "<br></br>";

      $current_state = $this_state;

    }

    ?>


 

 

When I tried to get the time for each url that I send request to convert to format, I will get the same input of format when I run through the loops. Do you know how I can get each different format when I send the request to each url?
