[SOLVED] Time (mktime)

[willpower]

I need to determine the current time in hh:mm:ss

 

i have the following

<?php

ini_set("date.timezone","Europe/London");

$hour=date("G");

$min=date('i');
$secs=date('s');



$newtime=date('H\:i\:s' ,mktime('$hour','$min','$secs',0,0,0));

echo $newtime;

?>

But it only returns the hour....what am i doing wrong?

im not a pro, im still learning,  but i got a question

 

$hour=date("G");

 

$min=date('i');

$secs=date('s');

 

 

 

$newtime=date('H\:i\:s' ,mktime('$hour','$min','$secs',0,0,0));

 

your $hour = date("g");

but it turns into a H?

i need to check that but regardless I thought that the formatting was correct and strangley the hours is the bit that works.

 

so

 

08:14:45  is returned as 08:00:00
