[SOLVED] Convert hh:mm PM to hh:mm:ss

[jdadwilson]

Does anyone know of a function or code that will convert hh:mm PM to hh:mm:ss?

 

I tried the following but it does not work...

 

$date = "2007-05-08"

$time = "01:30 PM"

 

$datetime = date("y:m:d h:i:s", strtotime($date . " " . $time)

 

This yelds $datetime = "2007-05-08 01:30:00" which the database interprets as 1:30 AM

 

TIA for any assistance

$time = "01:30pm"

If you want the time in 24 hour format, you need to use a capital "H" in the format string:

<?php
$date = "2007-05-08";
$time = "01:30 PM";
$datetime = date("y-m-d H:i:s", strtotime($date . " " . $time);
echo $datetime;
?>

The "H" worked! The book I have has errors in the list indicating that everything is uppercase. Knowing that it is not, I just made the wrong guess as to which was upper and which was lower.

 

Thanks!!!
