[SOLVED] Adding minutes to a timestamp

[assgar]

Hi

 

 

How can I add 15 minutes to the previous event time (timestamp) to get the next event time.

Note: This event time is not in a table. 

 

Straight forward adding the two values will probly not provide the correct result.

 

I can get the correct time with Mysql addtime($time, $duration) but that

is only good if the if info is in a table.

 

Thanks

 

<?php
$time = "09:00:00";//timestamp hh:mm:ss
$duration = 00:15:00;//enent duration hh:mm:ss


$next_time = $event_time + $event_duration;
?>

<?php
$timestamp = strtotime( "2007-08-08 09:00:00");
$deltaTimestamp = strtotime("+15 minutes", $timestamp);
print date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', $deltaTimestamp );
?>

Hi Patrick

 

You are great!

Thanks for the suggestion.

This is the final code that solved the problem.

 

<?
$event_time = 09:00:00
$event_length = 15;

$timestamp = strtotime("$event_time");
$etime = strtotime("+$event_length minutes", $timestamp);
$next_time = date('H:i:s', $etime);
?>
